In a time when plastic pollution is a growing global concern, a small family-run startup from
Navi Mumbai is offering a smart and sustainable solution. EcoCushionPaper is changing
how we pack and protect fragile items—replacing traditional bubble wrap with an innovative,
eco-friendly alternative made entirely from paper.
How a House Move Sparked a Green Idea
It all began in 2020 when the family was shifting homes. As they wrapped delicate items in
bubble wrap, they realized how much plastic waste was being created in the process. That
single moment sparked the idea of finding a more environmentally responsible way to pack
goods—leading to the birth of EcoCushionPaper.
How EcoCushionPaper’s Unique Design Works
After months of research, the team created a honeycomb-patterned kraft paper that
stretches and forms a 3D mesh. This mesh wraps securely around items and provides the
same protection as bubble wrap—without the plastic. It’s strong, stretchable, and requires no
tape, glue, or foam to work.
The design is inspired by origami techniques, and the result is a biodegradable and
compostable wrap that is lightweight, space-saving, and highly effective.
How the Family Turned Their Vision into a Reality
This startup is run by a father and his two children, who pooled their diverse skills to bring
the product to life. From understanding sustainable materials to setting up operations and
marketing, every step was handled in-house with a shared vision: to offer an alternative
that’s both eco-friendly and efficient.
How They Proved the Paper is as Good as Bubble Wrap
To build trust in their product, the team carried out live demos—wrapping glass items in their
cushion paper and dropping them from heights to show how well it worked. These tests
helped break the myth that only plastic can provide protection. Their message was simple:
you can protect the planet while still protecting your products.
How EcoCushionPaper Saves Space and Cuts Waste
Unlike bulky rolls of bubble wrap, EcoCushionPaper is compact and expands up to five
times its original size when stretched. This makes it ideal for shipping and storing. It also
reduces package volume, which helps in cutting down transport emissions and costs. And
since it’s made from kraft paper, it’s 100% recyclable and biodegradable.
How They Are Driving a Packaging Revolution
EcoCushionPaper isn’t just a product—it’s part of a movement. The team is actively
promoting eco-conscious packaging habits, sharing educational content, and encouraging
small businesses to ditch plastic. Their goal is to make sustainable packaging a new
standard rather than an exception.
