CASE STUDY: How LAM'ON Helps Canapack Expand Its Portfolio with Sustainable Flexible Packaging

Canapack, an Italian packaging company focused on eco-friendly solutions, partnered with LAM'ON as a local distributor and partner for the Italian market. Through this collaboration, Canapack offers LAM'ON’s compostable mailer bags to its customers, helping expand access to sustainable packaging solutions in Italy.

The Challenge

As demand for sustainable packaging continues to grow, Canapack needed to expand its portfolio with solutions that go beyond conventional materials.

Their key challenges included:

  • Offering truly sustainable alternatives to traditional plastic packaging
  • Expanding into flexible packaging formats such as mailer bags
  • Finding reliable, high-quality products that meet both performance and environmental standards
  • Partnering with a supplier capable of supporting their long-term sustainability vision

To remain competitive and relevant, Canapack needed solutions that could deliver both functionality and credibility.

The Solution

LAM'ON partnered with Canapack by supplying compostable mailer bags certified by standard EN 13432, supporting their product development and sustainable packaging portfolio.

This collaboration enabled Canapack to:

  • Expand their range of eco-friendly packaging solutions
  • Work with bio-based, compostable materials
  • Test and integrate new packaging formats
  • Strengthen their sustainability-driven value proposition

Implementation

The partnership began with an initial batch of approximately 500 compostable mailer bags, enabling Canapack to test, validate, and integrate the solution into their portfolio.

With every new batch delivered, the collaboration continues to evolve, supporting Canapack in expanding its range of sustainable packaging solutions and preparing for larger-scale adoption.

Results

  • Initial deployment of ~500 compostable mailer bags, with further scaling planned
  • With every new order, increased adoption of bio-based, compostable packaging within Canapack’s ecosystem
  • Ongoing development of innovative, sustainable packaging solutions through close collaboration
  • Strengthened long-term partnership between two sustainability-driven companies
  • Based on LAM'ON’s LCA benchmarks, every 500 kg of packaging deployed can reduce emissions by approximately 433 kg CO₂e compared to LDPE (or ~178 kg vs HDPE), demonstrating scalable environmental impact
