Solgelica makes water- and oil-proof paperboard for food and drinks applications, that are compliant with regulatory safety standards, without using any toxic chemicals or compromising the paper’s recyclability or biodegradability. The investment from Oaktree will help to accelerate the scale-up of SgMA’s Solgelica technology for 100% plastic-free packaging solutions in the EU and the UK.

Oaktree is a leading global investment manager that specialises in alternative investments.
