Lecta is set to reinforce its position as a comprehensive supplier of paper solutions by taking a stand for the first time at Fachpack, a leading trade fair for the packaging industry that takes place this year from September 24 to 26 in Nuremberg, Germany. The company will showcase its wide range of innovative products for different sectors like industrial and consumer packaging.

Lecta offers an extensive portfolio of papers with multiple applications in the packaging market:

  • Diva Art: The range of coated and metallized paperboards for rigid packaging, with excellent printability and an exceptional finish, ideal for premium and luxury brands.
  • EraCup: A functional paperboard whose characteristics make it the ideal choice for hot beverage single-use cups and on-the-go disposable food containers. The product is recyclable in standard paper recycling circuits.
  • Coral (uncoated), Creaset (one-side coated) and KraFit (brown kraft paper): Three versatile ranges of papers for shopping bags, available in a wide variety of grammages and finishes, offering high resistance and durability.
  • Adestor: Self-adhesive papers and films to meet the labeling needs of different sectors: beverages, food, logistics and transport, retail, personal care and household.
​

Lecta is firmly committed to the research and development of innovative paper solutions that contribute to the protection of the environment. The Group makes recyclable packaging products that reduce the environmental impact and replace non-recyclable materials, promoting responsible consumption and helping to create a more sustainable world.

As part of this commitment, Lecta develops a wide range of papers for the flexible​ packaging world: For example, Coral, Creaset and Metalvac incorporate heat-sealing properties and protection barriers, offering a more sustainable alternative for packaging in the food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical logistics, games and other sectors.
