Who we are

Papershell AB develops sustainable solutions based on cellulose fibers and takes a pioneering part in the transformation towards the circular society.

Patent and intellectual property

In view of IP, PaperShell AB, and the founders of PaperShell AB, have developed IP for several years and continue to do so. PaperShell AB is therefore in possession of a growing IP platform with significant and relevant knowhow and IPRs. The IP platform covers several aspects of sustainable solutions based on cellulose fibers. It covers a full range of products, raw materials, a wide range of production processes, as well as in depth understanding of the complexities of the application of developed sustainable solutions on markets to ensure societal impact in view of sustainability.

PaperShell AB files for IPRs when considered relevant for business purposes. The business logic of the IPR portfolio has multifold objects. A first object is adequate control over critical knowhow and projected revenue streams for actors in the business eco system surrounding PaperShell AB. A second object is putting the IPRs into use as a means to make the business grow.
