Featuring its innovative and natural paper solutions in line with new trends in beverage packaging. 

5 years after the last edition of the fair, Drinktec will be the meeting point once again for the international beverage and liquid food industry from September 12-16, 2022, in Munich.

Lecta, which has dramatically expanded its innovative and natural ranges of specialty papers for label, beverage, packaging and food service applications, will not be missing out on this event.

Visitors will be able to appreciate the excellent quality and versatility of our product lines including Metalvac metallized papers, the exclusive range of Adestor self-adhesive materials, Creaset one-side coated papers and Eurokote cast-coated papers, plus Linerset, Lecta's new range of release liners.

These papers have been designed in keeping with the new criteria for sustainable packaging, product design and consumer trends that, according to Drinktec, will shape the future of the beverage industry.

In addition, EraCup Natural, a totally recyclable, biodegradable and polyethylene-free cardboard for paper cup manufacturing, will be on display. This is the first product in Lecta's new “Era” range of functional papers for nature-friendly packaging.

As a responsible, committed company, Lecta places special emphasis on the continuous search for new solutions based on natural, renewable raw materials that contribute to a circular economy, thereby helping to create a more sustainable world.

We look forward to seeing you at Hall C6 - Stand 141, from September 12-16 in Munich, where together we will help define the beverage and liquid food packaging of tomorrow.
