Jujo Thermal develops a new biodegradable paper aimed at minimizing plastics in flexible packaging

FINLAND (News release) -- Jujo Thermal is developing a totally new, environmentally friendly specialty paper, aimed at flexible and sustainable food packaging. The new product has superior barrier properties to protect the content and to maintain its quality. It is a viable alternative to food packages that presently use barrier films made of plastic or aluminium. Therefore, the new product will significantly help to reduce the use of plastics in packaging.

The new product is made of paper-based material and it provides superior barrier properties against oxygen, water vapor, and flavour penetration. The product consists of wood-based fibres coated with a water-based barrier coating, and it is completely recyclable and biodegradable.

The new specialty paper product is based on a technology innovation from Jujo Thermal´s parent company, the Nippon Paper Industries. Nippon Paper Industries launched the SHIELDPLUS® technology and the first product applications in 2017. Jujo Thermal will be Nippon Paper Group´s European production base for SHIELDPLUS®.

The new product marks an important milestone, not only because of its ecological nature, but also because it is a new product category for Jujo Thermal.

The new product concept is currently in the market validation stage. Jujo Thermal is confident that it will provide its customers with an innovative and responsible platform to further develop their own products to be more competitive and yet ecological.

Jujo Thermal is one of the world's leading suppliers of durable direct thermal papers for label face, tickets & tags, and point-of-sales applications.
