Read has developed new metallized papers with functionalities specifically aimed at flexible packaging, a range of recyclable products whose objective is to replace some of the materials currently in use that contain plastic. Metalvac Barrier WV is suitable for food products, such as confectionery, coffee, tea, powder products, etc.

The new papers Metalvac Seal y Metalvac Barrier WV They are the result of innovative work based on Lecta's experience in direct high vacuum metallization, the application of coatings and the search for the appropriate components to achieve the desired functionalities. Both products have characteristics suitable for specific flexible packaging applications and, in both cases, are recyclable and therefore more sustainable.

Metalvac Seal It is a functional metallic paper with heat-sealable properties on the back.

The metallic and shiny side is suitable for offset printing (conventional and UV), flexography (UV, solvent, and water-based) and gravure.
