Lecta Expands Range Of Metallised Papers

Lecta’s Metalvac Ice Cream is a paper that meets the current requirements for technical performance, industrial efficiency and sustainability in the sector. The innovative paper is intended as a more sustainable alternative to existing laminate solutions on the market.

Available in 123gsm, this new paper offers high-quality printing in offset, flexography and rotogravure on its metallised side. Its water-vapour barrier also ensures optimal preservation of wafer cones, in direct contact with the paper, throughout the supply chain. This, along with its excellent runnability, positions Metalvac Ice Cream as a reliable and efficient solution for industry packing lines.

This new metallised paper is recyclable within the paper and cardboard recycling stream, in accordance with CEPI recyclability standards. It also aligns with circular economy principles and represents an efficient, more sustainable alternative for multiple flexible packaging applications.

The Metalvac range offers various paper grades with heat-sealability properties and barrier to light, water vapour, oxygen, and aroma, as well as resistance to moisture and grease (no PFAS added). These high-vacuum metallised papers stand out for their excellent runnability and adaptability to standard packing lines on the market, ensuring efficiency throughout the production process.

Its low aluminium content (0.08gsm) contributes to achieving high barrier performance without compromising the material’s recyclability within the paper recycling stream.
