■ About Kami-Air Design Window
This is a packaging material proposed by Paper & Green, a marketing website operated by Japan Pulp & Paper. This packaging bag is made of white kraft paper developed for transparency, allowing you to see the contents, and the window is made transparent by applying a special process to the paper itself. This eliminates the need for the paper to bond with different materials, such as plastic and glassine paper, that are normally required to create windows, and allows for high design flexibility in the transparent parts.
Replacing conventional plastic film packaging with this product will make a significant contribution to eliminating plastic.
