The global shift toward sustainable packaging isn’t just a trend—it’s a transformation. Brands are being called to rise above outdated, plastic-laden solutions and pioneer a future where packaging performs without polluting. At Impermea Materials, we’re answering that call with BIO-PAK—a next-generation suite of 100% bio-based, recyclable, compostable, and repulpable barrier coatings designed to meet the market’s demand for sustainability without compromising on performance.
The Sustainability Challenge: Performance vs. Planet
Today’s product leaders, R&D teams, and sustainability officers are grappling with a complex equation: how to meet performance benchmarks while staying compliant with intensifying global regulations and satisfying a fast-evolving, eco-conscious consumer base. Plastics, PFAS, and other fluorinated compounds are increasingly seen as liabilities—environmentally, reputationally, and financially.
That's where Impermea’s BIO-PAK steps in.
BIO-PAK: Barrier Coatings for a Post-Plastic World
BIO-PAK isn’t just a sustainable coating—it's a revolution in barrier science. Engineered for paper and paperboard packaging, BIO-PAK formulations outperform traditional plastic and polyethylene coatings on every key metric—moisture, grease, oxygen barrier properties, and operational efficiency—while remaining 100% compostable and recyclable.
Available Options:
- Superior resistance to moisture and oil
- Ideal for food trays, fresh produce, egg cartons
-
Passes BPI certification for compostability
- Added oxygen transmission barrier for extended shelf life
- Designed for dry foods, bakery items, and bread bags
-
Maintains printability and heat sealability under real-world conditions
These solutions are plug-and-play on existing equipment—no capital investment required. You gain a high-performing, sustainable edge without disrupting your production line.
Compostability That Means Business
Let’s be clear—compostable doesn’t mean fragile or inferior. With BIO-PAK, you get industrial-strength barrier protection in a coating that breaks down cleanly in commercial composting environments. It’s sustainability that’s certified, validated, and production-ready.
And beyond compliance, BIO-PAK enhances brand perception. As major CPGs pursue plastic-free goals for 2025 and beyond, offering packaging that aligns with those aspirations becomes a competitive advantage—not a cost.
