Lenovo and Everbright Tongchuang scale straw-fibre pulp moulded laptop packaging

Lenovo, Lianbao Technology and moulded-pulp maker Everbright Tongchuang have put straw-fibre moulded-pulp packaging into volume use on Lenovo consumer laptops. Since deployment in July 2025 the project has used about 160 tonnes of wet straw pulp fibre and cut recycled corrugated paper use by about 60 tonnes. Everbright Tongchuang expects straw fibre to extend to more product packaging.

Why this mattersA global electronics brand running straw-fibre moulded pulp at volume gives converters a proven non-wood fibre input and a template for other consumer-electronics categories.

  • The project has used about 160 tonnes of wet straw pulp fibre since deployment in July 2025
  • Use of recycled corrugated paper fell by about 60 tonnes as a result
  • Lenovo R&D led development with Lianbao Technology, Everbright Tongchuang and upstream raw-material partners
  • The packaging passed drop, random vibration and high-low temperature tests benchmarked to consumer-electronics shipping standards
  • Everbright Tongchuang expects straw fibre to extend to more product packaging under Lenovo's green packaging strategy

Updates

  • 2026-10-26 · Edited before publication: The source is Everbright Tongchuang's own release and says only that straw fibre is 'expected' to extend to more applications, not that Lenovo plans this. Volumes are small (160 t), so rated 2.
  • 2026-10-26 · Edited before publication: The source does not describe Lianbao Technology as Lenovo's manufacturing partner, only as a partner. Removed the description. The story stays because a named major brand owner has adopted the packaging at volume.
