Sappi Europe has launched Guard Pro OHS and Guard Pro OMH, two recyclable mono-material papers with high barrier protection. The new solutions support branded goods manufacturers in complying with stricter EU packaging regulations such as the PPWR. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Guard Pro OHS is a heat-sealable high barrier paper for applications such as flow-wrap, sachets, pillow bags and doypacks. It offers high protection against oxygen, water vapour, grease and MOSH\/MOAH. These barrier properties extend shelf life, preserve flavour and product quality<\/strong> and protect the contents from contamination. The paper has improved mechanical properties that result in better runnability on packaging machines.<\/p>\n

The paper is available in two print versions: Natural and Gloss. Guard Pro OHS is Suitable for direct food contact<\/strong>. Typical applications include confectionery, snacks, dried foods, ice cream (tubular bag applications), but also hygiene products and children's products, where safety, freshness and compliance are crucial.<\/p>

The Guard Pro OMH high barrier paper offers similar barrier properties to Guard Pro OHS, but is designed for cold seal applications.<\/strong> It is a cost-effective solution for applications where heat sealing is not required. With an improved oxygen barrier compared to Guard Pro OHS, Guard Pro OMH is suitable for a wide range of applications. Wide range of applications in the food and non-food sectors.<\/strong> Due to its particularly smooth surface, the paper offers excellent processing results in metallisation for ultra-high barrier applications.<\/p>\n
