About the challenge to meet
Airpad (air cushions) is a goods protection solution made up of 99% air, ensuring reliability, adaptability, flexibility, ease of use, and universality.
In cases where collection and recycling of the air cushion cannot be guaranteed, a fully compostable product is needed.
About the solution: Airpad™ BIO Home Compost®, the first biodegradable Home Compost air cushion, commercialized by FROMM
Airpad™ BIO Home Compost® air cushions are made from biodegradable materials, thus minimizing environmental impact while providing effective protection for goods.
