REEF coating is a barrier coating for paper and cardboard packaging. The product is free from fluorine and can be recycled with REEF: 2 coating as a single coat ( or topcoat) ,barrier coatings with excellent water repellency and very good grease proof properties towards grease and oil can be achieved. The REEF :2 coatings are heat-sealable and improved oxygen barrier.
- Product Features
- Less processing & fewer chemicals at lower cost
- Nano properties without being nano (imp for human contact)
- Viscosity flexibility allowing more applications & no gelling
- Better green story
- Nimble and flexible manufacturing options
- Close porosity
- Barrier
- Molded fiber
- Thicken
- Barrier
- Various Application Features
Paper & Board
- Lowering CO2 (moving from solvent based to water based)
- Replacing Plastic
- Reducing waste (recyclable)
- Reducing substances of high concern (no Fluorochemicals - PFAS)
- Improving barrier properties (oxygen, water, grease)
Paper & Board: Molding with Curran
- Wet-end blending of normal pulp & Curran
- Enhanced strength
- No "dusting" or "hairy" fibers on surface
- Higher density, lower porosity
- Shape retention & strength when wet
- Excellent barrier performance with thinner coating
- Both 3D molded packaging and flat paper/board
- For applications requiring high barrier, long shelf life and strength
- Recyclable, compostable, biodegradable
Paper & Board: - Coating with Curran
- Excellent moisture barrier for tough applications
- Very high oxygen barrier
- Strong grease/oil barrier for greasy foods
- Compostable at home
- Repulpable/recyclable on paper due to thin layers
- Good heat sealibility
- Food contact approved
Curran in Food
- Reduces sugar and fat in food
- Maintains texture & taste
- Natural emulsifies and thickener that does not gel
- Reduces other components in food and sauces, such as egg
- Helps reduce costs
