Recyclable vacuum metallized paper with a MVTR barrier aimed at flexible packaging for food applications.
Applications
Brands
Nissha Metallizing Solutions' specialty metallized paper, METIVO® VB, has a high MVTR barrier below 1gsm/day in tropical conditions. The product is especially well-suited to flexible packaging for food applications, such as dry food, confectionery, cereal bars and beverage mix powders.
Certified as recyclable paper by both Institut Cyclos-HTP and Aticelca®, METIVO® VB is an ideal, eco-friendly alternative to less sustainable and plastic-based packaging materials. METIVO® VB enables manufacturers to market their packaging as certified recyclable on the shelves with higher chance of being the preferred option for the final customer.
Our barrier paper has a functional, glossy, metallized side and is made of more than 95% paper that enables converters to apply additional coatings and printing varnishes while keeping a paper content above 80 or 85%. The metallized side is preferably facing inwards to keep its maximum performance but is also sometimes presented outwards to provide shelf appeal as a preferred quality product.
