VaporCoat® recyclable water-based coatings confer high barrier properties to paper-based packaging and wraps. VaporCoat® hinders water vapor transmission so perishables stay fresh, frozen goods remain intact, and sensitive contents arrive in factory condition. For greater food safety and preservation, select VaporCoat® grades can also inhibit contaminants ordinarily found in recycled paper from migrating into packaged dry food. Learn more about VaporCoat »
