launches flexible oil and grease resistant packaging paper ( Company news )
Zanders has developed
the flexible food contact paper Zanbarrier OGR specially for products
containing fat, primarily in the food domain, and will be presenting it
for the first time at the FachPack 2016 trade fair. Zanbarrier OGR is uncoated,
resistant to oil and grease and moisture-proof. It is suitable for fast food
packaging such as kebab or French fry wrappers, for butter wrapping, as release
paper for fatty and moist food products or as lamination on pizza and bakery
boxes, for example.
In addition to the OGR variant, Zanders is working
on further barriers, including those dedicated for use with mineral oils,
water and steam, or as aroma protection. “Our decades of experience in the
use of high-performance technologies for surface treatments has enabled
us to test and implement all different kinds of barriers”, explains
Jakob Jonsson, Sales Director at Zanders. “We can provide our customers
with flexible and targeted solutions for their individual needs. With
our high-performance barrier papers, we offer an environmentally
friendly alternative to plastic packaging.”
With its barrier papers, Zanders rounds off the
product range of flexible packaging paper which also includes the
lightly waterproof, machine-smoothed natural paper Zankraft MF in matte,
silk and gloss versions as well as the Zanflex one-side coated qualities
with a shiny surface. As fresh fibre papers, all packaging papers stand
out due to their high level of purity and safety, thus making them ideally
suited for the packaging of food such as cereals, sugar, flour, baking and
confectionery goods, as well as soup packets or individually wrapped tea
bags. Furthermore, they can be successfully deployed as packaging for
pet food or tobacco goods, as gift wrapping paper, for shopping bags or for
laminations. In common with the entire product portfolio, all flexible
packaging papers from Zanders are sustainably produced and are FSC-certified.
They are also recyclable and compostable.
