Packaging made of barrier cardboard, plastic-free (GT2) directly from the manufacturer

Ebro Color offers an innovative, sustainable packaging solution with its plastic-free barrier cartonboard (GT2).

This cartonboard is characterized by its plastic-free eco-barrier and a high recycled content.

The cartonboard is more recyclable than paper and cardboard, as it has no film lamination.

In addition, the cardboard is compostable.

You get perfect packaging for the environmentally friendly circular economy of the future.

Properties and benefits of the barrier cartonboard plastic-free

The barrier cartonboard plastic-free (GT2) is an outstanding choice for companies looking for sustainable and environmentally friendly packaging solutions. This cartonboard offers a natural grease barrier specifically designed for direct food contact and prevents grease from penetrating into folding cartons at temperatures from -20° to +90°. The barrier is water-based and contains no perfluorine compounds (PFOA and PFOS free), which means it meets the highest ecological standards.

Another advantage of the barrier cartonboard plastic-free (GT2) is its recyclability and the possibility of industrial composting in accordance with DIN EN 13432. The cartonboard is also FSC® and PEFC certified, which underlines the sustainability of the materials used. It is compliant with the EU Single-Use Plastics Directive 2019/904 and the German Packaging Act, which means there are no additional charges for single-use plastic packaging.

The packaging of the future is renewable and recyclable

Climate change and plastic waste pose a serious threat to life on earth. Globally, only 16% of waste is recycled. A truckload of plastic enters the oceans every minute!

Despite this, packaging is necessary for distribution, food safety and the prevention of food waste.

Therefore, the packaging of the future must be renewable and recyclable: Ebro Color's barrier carton offers a solution for food packaging in particular.

Packaging is stable and protects food

Packaging made from lightweight cardboard with a dispersion barrier creates unique opportunities for sustainability by increasing yields and protecting food.

Packaging safe for direct food contact

The barrier cartonboard is made from pure and 100% traceable virgin fibers without fluorochemicals or optical brighteners. This makes the cartonboard suitable for direct food contact worldwide.

Printing on packaging with food-safe ink

We print with food-safe ink on the barrier board, which does not require optical brighteners. Food packaging can be printed with the ink in excellent quality.

Versatile application options and easy further processing

The plastic-free barrier cartonboard (GT2) offers a wide range of applications and can be further processed without any problems. It is ideal for food packaging as it prevents the penetration of mineral oils (MOSH/MOAH) through the use of activated carbon and prevents migration to food through adsorption. In addition, the cartonboard has good sensory properties in terms of taste and smell, which does not affect the quality of the packaged products.</p
