Five years ago, Paul took a leap of faith. While his peers were contemplating retirement, he embraced the challenge of disrupting the traditional packaging industry. Appalled by the amount of plastic pollution on our planet and no longer content to accept the dangers of plastic packaging materials, he founded PulpWorks and set out to create safe, eco-friendly packaging for consumer products. The development of the Karta-Pack™ – a compostable replacement for the toxic plastic blister pack – followed immediately. PulpWorks and Paul have been the recipients of 20 awards and the subject of more than 40 articles in the press. PulpWorks - “Molding a Better World”!
