Thermoformed fiber is a material made by forming paper fibers or other natural fiber in a mold. The end product can be made into almost any shape for any type of solution. In the process of making thermoformed fiber, the product begins with a process similar to transfer molding. During the process of thermoforming fiber, the product is transferred to a set of heated metal molds that dry the fiber under intense pressure and heat, making an extra drying process unnecessary. The process of thermoforming the pulped fiber delivers parts that have a smooth finish on both sides of the thin and dense walls of the product. There are many advantages to having a thermoformed fiber product with smooth walls. They include: reduced freight and storage costs and the ability to use mechanical denesting. The use of thermoformed fiber is very desirable when visual appearance is preferred.

The process of pulp thermoforming is employed to develop sturdy and smooth packaging. This type of packaging can be used in various industrial and commercial uses. Thermoformed pulp is a desirable alternative to petroleum-based products. American Fiber Packaging has invested in the latest equipment technology and has developed a process to manufacture high-quality thermoformed fiber solutions. Through this process we are able to deliver environmentally responsible products to our customers.

Thermoformed molded fiber products can be customized to specifications and can include clamshells, trays, inserts, and many other types of packaging. Thermoformed pulp is a great alternative to petroleum-based foam products like expanded polystyrene (EPS) for protecting and positioning products inside packaging.
