Speciality paper and cartonboard supplier Chapelton is to distribute Smurfit Kappa's Grease Guard Food grease resistant folding carton board into the UK packaging sector in an exclusive distribution deal.
Grease Guard Food folding has been specifically designed for packaging that is in direct contact with all food types. It is also recyclable, biodegradable and compostable, and can be used as an alternative to virgin fibre board with PE lamination. Being recyclable as a mono material, and as its production content originates from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified sources, the product maintains FSC Chain of Custody.
Due to its grease, moisture resistant qualities, Grease Guard Food is suitable for dry, moist and fatty food contact in both food and drink packaging. It does not contain any PFC's and is water based.
Produced at Smurfit Kappa's Hoya mill in Germany, the grade is available in weight range from 300-500g/m², and full sized for freezer and chiller use, suitable for fatty foods as well as consumer goods, industrial packaging and pharmaceutical packaging. Smurfit Kappa's MB 12 migration barrier can be added to the Grease Guard range for increased barriers to organic and sensory migrants
