Barrier & Paper Packaging

Barrier & Paper Packaging: Moisture control is crucial in food packaging — you either want to keep the moisture inside or outside of the packaging to preserve the food. Packaging material performance is guided by moisture and oxygen transmission rates. When food grade paper is needed for dry food packaging to keep contents fresh, provide a long shelf life, and allow customers to derive the maximum value from the product, great barrier coatings are essential.

The barrier-coated papers from Feldmuehle are based on white pulp fibres from certified forestry. A special multi-layer coating application produces a dense and closed paper surface that prevents both contaminations by gaseous mineral oils and penetration of greases through the packaging. All components used in this process are approved for direct food contact and are free of fluorocarbons.
