CHOOSE TO SUIT YOUR PRODUCT

Adapted to the product and packaging process

PE-coated paper combines a paper surface with a protective polyethylene layer. The coating reduces moisture and grease absorption and penetration, helps the paper retain its strength and enables heat sealing.

Choose rolls or cut-to-size sheets for baked goods, foods containing fat, frozen goods and moisture-sensitive products. The material is also used as protective and interleaving paper in industry. Through Plastrum OÜ in Estonia, Emballa helps select the right paper, coating and processing for the application.

  • Baked goods and confectionery
  • Butter, margarine and high-fat foods
  • Meat, fish and cheese
  • Frozen foods
  • Fast food and ready meals
  • Sweets and ice cream
  • Dry and moisture-sensitive products
  • Protective and interleaving paper for industry

A wrap with your identity

Logos, product information, repeating patterns or an all-over design create a consistent appearance. Printing and coating are adapted together to the product, quantity and desired result.
