Depending on the product, with a water vapour barrier tailored precisely to your application.
Risk: Moisture penetrates, causing the product to lose its crispness.
Solution: A barrier coating whose water vapour permeability we tailor to the requirements of your product.
Verification: Measurement of water vapour permeability (WVTR at 23 °C and 50 per cent relative humidity) and testing using samples of your product.
So that sweet things stay sweet
Sweets &
Confectionery
Chocolate, pralines, sweets and other confectionery products thrive on their taste, aroma and distinctive appeal. Paper-based barrier solutions help to preserve this quality throughout the entire supply chain, from filling to the first bite.
With barrier paper, precisely tailored to the product, process and brand promise.
The brand promise
The packaging does more than just protect the product
It preserves the product’s characteristic texture, freshness and distinctive appearance. From the moment it catches the eye on the shelf right through to the moment it is consumed, product quality, the packaging experience and trust in the brand are maintained.
Depending on the application, the solutions are recyclable, suitable for machine processing and approved for food contact.
Have you ever thought about how packaging and digital printing can reduce stock levels, waste and time-to-market?

Your benefits
Paper-based packaging with a reduced plastic content is high-performance, suitable for machine processing and recyclable. Thanks to its strong barrier properties, it reliably protects your products, whilst you benefit from a high-quality surface finish, good printability, stable machine operation and reliable sealability.

Tried and tested, because every application is different
The proof of application
-
How does paper protect against damp?
-
How does paper retain fat and flavour?
Depending on the product, with barrier coatings against grease and oxygen.
Risk: Grease seeps through; oxygen alters flavour and quality.
Solution: A combined grease and oxygen barrier, with an additional MOSH/MOAH barrier on request.
Verification: KIT test for the grease barrier, OTR measurement for the oxygen barrier, and testing using samples of your product. -
Can paper be processed on existing packaging lines?
Our barrier films are optimised for existing packaging lines. Major modifications are not usually necessary.
Risk: Malfunctions during forming, sealing or filling.
Solution: Where necessary, we adapt the process and individual components, such as the mould shoulder.
Verification: Machine trials under real-world conditions. -
How recyclable are barrier papers?
Barrier papers are verifiably recyclable and assessed in accordance with a recognised standard.
Risk: Uncertain disposal and regulatory risks, such as those arising from the EU Packaging Directive (PPWR).
Solution: Depending on the product, a paper content of 80–95 per cent and a material-efficient coating that separates cleanly from the fibre during recycling.
Verification: Assessment in accordance with CEPI 4evergreen.
