For decades, brands have relied on plastic and polyethylene (PE) to provide essential barrier properties, such as moisture resistance, grease protection, and durability. However, with rising consumer demand for sustainable packaging and stricter regulations against plastics and PFAS, businesses are seeking better alternatives.
The good news? Transitioning to high-performance, sustainable paper packaging has never been easier–especially with Impermea Materials.
Paper That Performs Like Plastic
One of the biggest barriers to moving away from plastic has been performance. Traditionally, brands had to choose between sustainability and function. But Imeprmea eliminates that compromise.
Our advanced barrier coatings give paper the same properties as plastic, delivering oil and grease resistance, moisture vapor barriers (MVTR), and oxygen transmission protector (OTR)--all while being PFAS-free, recyclable, compostable, and repulpable.
Seamless Integrations: No New Machinery Needed
Many companies hesitate to switch materials because they fear costly equipment changes or production slowdowns. That’s why Impermea’s coatings are designed to run on your existing equipment–whether it’s rod coating, graduate, flexogrraphic presses, or spraying. No new capital investments. No production bottlenecks. Just plug-and-play solutions that allow for an easy transition.
