Recyclable paper
Good for the environment - Nils is made from recyclable paper. The innovative coating protects your products against sunlight and air.
Good shelf life
Our nature boy is particularly ideal for dry products and keeps them fresh and dry.
High UV protection
But don’t be fooled - although Nils is made from paper + coating, he’ll optimally protect your product from outside influences.
Free from plastic film - no zipper
Sustainable and without plastic film - that’s why Nils comes without a plastic zipper or plastic aroma valve.
Is nature a matter close to your heart?
Nils too.
Nils too.
Nils consists exclusively of paper. Nils does not contain any inner plastic film or plastic add-ons such as a zipper or aroma valve. This not only gives you contemporary packaging but also helps the environment. Nils can be recycled in the paper bin and will get reused in the recycling chain. That’s what modern packaging looks like!
Plastic-free paper pouch
Natural Nils’ paper is coated so that he doesn’t need an inner plastic film yet still provides good protection. He is ideal for storing dry products as well as oily and greasy contents. Our paper pouch also has very low oxygen permeability - packaged products stay fresher for longer.
We use the thickest version available of this paper to provide the best possible protection. With more than 190 years of expertise in the packaging market, we can safely say that there is no paper more sustainable for stand-up and flat-bottom pouches.

Look & Feel
Natural Nils has a matt finish with fine paper structure. The packaging can be creatively designed to look like kraft paper, however there are also unprinted areas to allow the paper structure or bold, vibrant colours to shine through. All Packiro pouches can be printed right up to the edges and on the front, back and base, giving you ultimate creative freedom.

Our FAQs
Nils is perfect for dry goods. Since the paper pouch is free from plastic film and we strive to use as little plastic as possible, there is no zipper. It doesn’t contain an aroma valve or transparent viewing window like Toni. It is not suitable for storing liquids. You should carry out an aroma test beforehand for any strong-smelling products.
Creativity knows (almost) no limits! Our pouches can be printed on anywhere and right up to the edges, and on the front, back and base. We use a HD digital printing process (CMYK colour format) to achieve vibrant colours and outstanding detail. This makes high-resolution photos and graphics possible. You can also easily print your favourite kraft paper colour on your pouch.
Nils comes with a tear notch as standard. You also have the option to select a euro slot for the stand-up pouch. This fully sustainable and paper structure cannot be fitted with a zipper or aroma valve because these add-ons would contain plastic components.
As with all other Pack Heroes, you can fill the paper pouch both by machine or by hand. They are sealed at the top.
