Contributing to Sustainable Packaging with
High Performance Water-Based Heat Seal Coatings
The reduction of single-use plastics is required to create a sustainable society.
As an alternative to plastic, carbon-neutral recyclable paper is gaining attention as a packaging material.
CHEMIPEARL™ can provide functions such as heat sealing and water / oil resistance to paper, and contribute to the conversion of plastic packaging to paper.
