A PFAS-free metallized paper with a high vegetable and mineral oil barrier

Lecta has positioned itself as a leader in flexible packaging with its Metalvac range, a series of functional metallized papers that combine exceptional performance with runnability and recyclability.

Metalvac papers provide light, moisture, water vapor, water, grease and oxygen barriers. They are characterized by excellent runnability and adaptability to different packaging equipment, allowing for maximum performance in the production process. In addition, their low aluminum content (0.08 g/m²) increases barrier efficiency without compromising recyclability in the standard paper circuit, making Metalvac a more sustainable option for flexible packaging.

Metalvac GP PFAS-free is Lecta's new 75 g/m² metallized paper, designed to deliver more natural, efficient packaging for a wide range of foods, particularly butter, margarine, cheese and other fatty products. PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances) free, it complies with the latest regulation and avoids the use of any chemicals that are hazardous to human health and the environment. In addition to the characteristics of the Metalvac range, it provides a barrier to vegetable oils such as sunflower and palm oil, as well as mineral oils. It folds and processes easily for efficient and versatile production and complies with CEPI V2 and ATICELCA recyclability standards (level B test results).

Metalvac GP PFAS-free represents a more environment-friendly, high-performance alternative to metallized films and other traditional greaseproof papers. Its properties make it an ideal choice for companies seeking more natural, quality packaging for their fatty products.

With the Metalvac range, Lecta demonstrates its commitment to innovation and sustainability in flexible packaging.

The entire Metalvac range is produced according to FSSC 22000 food safety certification, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards, essential for the food industry, in compliance with ISO 14001 and EMAS environmental management, ISO 50001 energy efficiency, ISO 9001 quality and ISO 45001 occupational health and safety standards. It is also available upon request with PEFC or FSC® C011032 Chain of Custody forestry certifications.

Let nature shine with Metalvac.
