Nuremberg, Monaco and Brussels: Sappi Europe presented its packaging solutions at three trade fairs in recent weeks, including barrier papers, sealable packaging paper and a new type of folding boxboard.
On the FachPack Sappi presented its new paper-based solution with integrated functionality for all those who want to replace composite packaging with a paper-based solution.

All Guard papers guarantee a high level of product safety and can be Recycle completely. Among the references already realised is the packaging for a new nut-fruit bar from a well-known branded goods manufacturer.
„Reducing the consumption of fossil raw materials in packaging is a major concern for us. That's why we have developed Sappi Seal, a functional paper whose integrated heat sealability is realised as a dispersion coating on the reverse side of the paper and can replace papers with a PE coating,“ explains René Köhler, Head of Business Development Packaging and Speciality Papers, described another new development from Sappi.
On the Luxe Pack in Monaco, the paper and cardboard specialist recorded a significant increase in demand - contrary to the general trade fair trend. Here, the company presented the new Mechanical pulp board studio, which combines a large specific volume with a high rigidity and has a high surface quality with a whiteness of 100 per cent.
