An additional requirement was, of course, the ability to print high quality graphics on the surface using Asahi's sustainable, water-washable AWPTM plates, our water-based inks and Esko's latest Crystal V anilox technology. The manufacturers were delighted with the result and we look forward to working with Asahi Photoproducts to provide printed samples on their drupa stand using our inks on this unique and sustainable substrate. Chespa is also proud to have been recognised with an FTA sustainability award for the water-based inks used in this project, which are made from renewable raw materials.\u201c<\/p>\n<p><strong>Anetta Malkusch<\/strong>, PR, Marketing and Advertising Manager of Chespa Sp.z o.o.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Chespa's FlexiLack FX Barrier barrier coating, which is used under the name FlexiLack FX Barrier <strong>Paper is a high-performance metallised compostable film<\/strong>, which consists of four layers: a cellulose film coated on top and bottom with a special coating and a top layer of a printable metallised surface. It combines optical properties with improved barrier and deadfold capabilities. Target applications include twist wrap and flow wrap packaging of confectionery, bakery and non-food products. This packaging is ideal for premium labelling applications and is <strong>compatible with cold seals<\/strong>. The project is aimed at brand owners who want to achieve the highest sustainability goals while maintaining the functional packaging barrier properties required for this type of food application.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source:\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.asahi-photoproducts.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Asahi Photoproducts<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chespa is partnering with Asahi Photoproducts and Esko to provide its customers with high barrier film-based, biodegradable packaging.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":92994,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"__cvm_playback_settings":[],"__cvm_video_id":"","rank_math_description":"Chespa kooperiert mit Asahi Photoproducts und Esko, um seinen Kunden hochbarrierefilmbasierte, biologisch abbaubare Verpackungen zu bieten.","rank_math_focus_keyword":"kooperation,kompostierbar,asahi photoproducts","rank_math_title":"","csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[59651,38,31,51],"class_list":{"0":"post-92992","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-packmittel-und-packstoffe","8":"tag-asahi-photoproducts","9":"tag-lebensmittel","10":"tag-nachhaltigkeit-und-green-packaging","11":"tag-verpackungsdruck-und-veredelung","12":"cs-entry","13":"cs-video-wrap"},"acf":[],"vimeo_video":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92992","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=92992"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92992\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/92994"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=92992"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=92992"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=92992"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
