Kiefel’s dry and wet fiber combo

The perfect match at Fachpack

September 25, 2025

Two technologies, one goal: the future of sustainable packaging. At Fachpack 2025 in Nuremberg, Kiefel, a global market leader in innovative and sustainable thermoforming and joining technologies for polymers and natural fibers, celebrates the premiere of its new dry fiber technology – demonstrating how it complements the proven wet fiber solution to open up entirely new opportunities for FMCG brand owners and converters.

Wet & dry fiber combination

While Wet Fiber is particularly suited for complex, deep-drawn products, Kiefel’s Dry Fiber technology provides an efficient entry into fiber processing for simpler, flatter packaging – with the most economical solution on the market.

Market-ready applications such as trays, beverage lids, or technical packaging can be produced directly from roll-fed paper – an efficient process with an impressive annual output of 70 million parts or more for the most common requirements.

Visitors to the Kiefel stand will experience both technologies working hand in hand: live and up close with a margarine tray (wet fiber) and matching lid (dry fiber), meeting barrier requirements while being fully recyclable. With both processes, Kiefel supports FMCG brands and converters in producing market-ready, sustainable packaging and unlocking new business opportunities.

Particularly noteworthy: Kiefel has also filed several patents for process and tooling technologies that enable high-quality product forming even with simple and cost-efficient roll-fed papers.

This makes the technology even more economical while broadening the range of raw materials available for sustainable packaging solutions. As a full system supplier, Kiefel delivers machines, tooling, automation, and material expertise from a single source – supported by strong partners across the entire value chain.
