Title: Enhancing Sustainable Packaging: The Role of Barrier Coatings and Adhesives
Description:
The increasing demand for sustainable packaging has brought paper-based materials to the forefront of innovation. Barrier coatings play a crucial role in providing functionalities such as moisture resistance, grease resistance, and product protection, which can affect recyclability and adhesive performance throughout the packaging manufacturing process. This presentation will explore current trends in recyclability and repulpability and the move toward water-based coatings. It will showcase barrier coatings that enhance both recyclability and performance, and address the challenges of adhesive compatibility, particularly how coatings interact with adhesives during conversion and end-of-line processes. Through case studies and practical recommendations, we will illustrate how the combination of barrier coatings and adhesives can create packaging solutions that meet functional requirements while supporting sustainability goals.
