In Italy, metallized paper is the preferred choice for cold-cut packaging. It's visually appealing and possible to recycle in regular recycling streams. However, vacuum metallization presents certain production challenges. Billerud ConFlex CoatBase Met is a paper that is tailored for this process, ensuring efficient and reliable packaging conversion.
Specially crafted for metallization coating
Prepared for efficient metalIization
We deliver ConFlex CoatBase Met surface-treated and ready for metallization. By eliminating a major production step, you can increase packaging output in your converting process. Developed from a strong base paper. ConFlex CoatBase Met ensures cost-efficient production and high-quality results.
Designed for high performance
ConFlex CoatBase Met is a kraft paper with optimal moisture content and an optimal blend of 100% primary fibers. You get a strong paper that runs smoothly and quickly through converting machines. Its superior strength also provides an even surface for metallization and minimizes the risk of paper breaks, avoiding unplanned downtime.
We have engineered this paper in collaboration with paper conversion experts. ConFlex CoatBase Met is part of Billerud's extensive family of kraft-based papers, specifically designed to meet the demands of challenging coating applications.
Possible to recycle
Packaging can only contain a few percent of non-paper material to be accepted in regular recycling streams. Vacuum metallization helps meet this requirement by being extremely thin - about 20-40 nanometers, over 200 times thinner than aluminum foil. ConFlex CoatBase Met is fully recyclable and produced in an integrated process, optimizing resource use to reduce carbon emissions.
