Abstract For an effective optimization of pulp thermoforming and of the moulded pulp products manufactured by this process, a full understanding of the process physics combined with full knowledge of the pressing equipment is necessary. For this reason, in this Addendum, we clarify how the process parameters “ Holding time ,” “ Vacuum time ,” “ Cycle time ,” and “ Temperature ” were interpreted and subsequently defined for the analysis of the process and product‐related outputs of the thermoforming experiments.
