PaperLite

AR Packaging’s PaperLite is a biodegradable packaging material made from recycled paper fibers that can be thermoformed and is approved for food contact. Based on sustainably renewable FSC certified paper from sustainably managed forestry, this material helps reduce plastic packaging. PaperLite also offers economic advantages over conventional materials in terms of weight. Handling is extremely consumer-friendly, with the material combining easy-opening mechanisms and various sealing layers. Due to best forming and cutting properties, PaperLite has excellent applicability on form-fill & seal machines. It is free of chemical additives such as iso-cyanates or solvents and is suitable for high-quality flexographic printing and advanced graphic reproductions for eye-catching visuals.
