Innovative barrier coatings:

The sustainable solution for food packaging

When food and packaging come together, quality, hygiene and safety play a major role: especially when it comes to packaging with foreseeable direct food contact. In order to meet the various requirements of the food industry, the papers should be able to be coated directly in the paper machine. The more print options, the higher the quality of the coating.


This is where our products are used: WDS 560.T.20 / WDS 590.K / WDS 580.23


New requirements due to the packaging regulation


The new Packaging Regulation will come into force in 2022. This means that fluorine compounds and silicone coatings are no longer permitted in food packaging. As a result, the costs for plastic films in the packaging sector will increase significantly.


Our solution: Specially selected papers according to the respective special requirements.


  • FDA
  • MOSH / MOAH
  • The Packaging Act (VerpackG)
  • The CH Consumer Goods Ordinance
  • The regulations 1935/2004 / EG, 2023/2006 / EG and the European packaging guidelines 94/62 / EG
  • Recyclable and compostable

How our barrier coating makes your packaging sustainable


  • by doing without plastic connections and aluminum
  • through new paper technologies and paper coatings
  • through the properties of the products and in cooperation with paper manufacturers and coaters
  • perfect combination of paper, applied quantity and pressure
  • by testing the products in their complete application
  • through recyclable and aerobe biodegradability
  • through further processing (de-inkbar) of recyclable paper for packaging


This is the beginning of a cycle that makes the usage of these papers to a friend.
