Exploring the adaptability and technicality of our metallized food wraps and food bags
Nissha Metallizing Solutions produces a specialized product, which is formulated to offer the technical and functional benefits required for direct food contact food wrap and food bags.
Our metallized paper continues to look great even under the challenging scenarios that come with direct food contact: moisture build-up, grease and extreme temperatures, for example. Our products, therefore, directly assist food producers, or restaurant chains present a wrap that appropriately symbolizes the quality of their brand.
Product versatility
Our food wraps can be used for a variety of different purposes. Our paper is metallized on one side but is suitable for direct food contact on either the metallized or non-metallized side. Some customers use the metallized side in contact with food, and others use the metallized side on the outside for added visual appeal.
In the US, our food wraps are either made into food bags which are pre-constructed, or as pre-cut sandwich wraps. Our papers are typically used by quick service restaurants and grocery stores that offer take out options. An advantage to the metallized paper, is it provides functionality, as a barrier, retaining or holding in heat keeping food warmer longer. Another advantage, sincepaper is a porous material, it allows for some moisture absorption, helping preserve the crispness of food. Hot sandwich foods when enclosed can create moisture and condensation which can lead to their breaded bun and toast companions to be less desirable and wilted.
In Europe, our metallized paper is used differently. We see higher demand using it for wrapping cold cuts and fresh deli meats when purchasing from the supermarkets.
