Called oneBARRIER FibreCycle, its base substrate is UPM Solide Lucent™, a responsibly sourced and recyclable kraft paper especially well-suited for packaging, due to its high density, folding performance, and overall coatability. The paper's smoothness, porosity, and mechanical performance make it an excellent foundation for achieving optimum barrier properties.
As noted by Janne Varvemaa, Director, Products & Technology, UPM Specialty Papers, “By itself, our Solide Lucent paper is not ready for end-uses where high barriers are required, so a major focus of the co-creation project was developing the coating layers.”
