Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper is a greaseproof paper without chemical additives. It is made of natural and renewable materials and has strong greaseproof and waterproof properties. It is widely used in the food industry and can directly contact food without contaminating it, meeting environmental protection and food safety standards.
Production process
Raw material selection: Natural fibers, such as renewable wood pulp, are used as the base material. In order to achieve the greaseproof properties, no chemical coating containing fluorine compounds is used.
Pulp treatment: The wood pulp is mechanically or chemically treated to remove impurities and form a uniform pulp. According to the specific greaseproof requirements, the pulp can be further adjusted in process.
Pressing: The treated pulp is pressed, and the fibers are arranged more closely through special mechanical equipment, so as to naturally form greaseproof properties. This step determines the thickness and density of the paper.
Surface treatment: Some Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper will be surface treated, such as applying a natural coating (such as soybean oil or beeswax) to enhance its greaseproof and waterproof properties while maintaining its degradability.
Drying and cutting: The formed oil-proof paper is dried to reach the specified moisture content. Finally, it is cut and packaged according to the required size and shape.
Materials used
Wood pulp: Usually 100% natural wood pulp is used, which comes from sustainable forests to ensure the renewability and environmental friendliness of the paper.
Plant-based coating (optional): To enhance the oil-proof performance, natural plant coatings such as soybean oil, beeswax, etc. can be used, which are also degradable.
No chemical additives: In order to maintain food safety, harmful chemicals such as PFAS (perfluorinated and polyfluorinated compounds) are avoided in production.
Features
Natural oil resistance: No chemical additives are required, and the natural oil resistance effect is achieved through a compact fiber structure and plant coating.
Environmentally friendly and degradable: Made of renewable wood pulp, it can be completely degraded in the natural environment without polluting the environment.
Food safety: It can directly contact food, is non-toxic and harmless, and meets the safety standards of food packaging.
High temperature resistance: It can withstand high temperatures during baking and heating without releasing harmful substances.
Good air permeability: Greaseproof paper is oil-proof while maintaining moderate air permeability, which helps keep food dry and fresh.
Advantages
Sustainability: The use of renewable materials such as natural wood pulp and plant coatings is in line with the concept of environmental protection and sustainable development.
No chemical pollution: No harmful chemical coatings are used to reduce potential harm to human health and the environment.
Highly effective oil and water resistance: Without compromising the degradability of paper, it has good oil and water resistance and is suitable for a variety of food packaging applications.
Compostable: Most Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper can be degraded under industrial composting conditions, which helps reduce landfills.
Versatile: Suitable for a variety of uses, from food packaging to baking, it can be competent and has a wide range of applications.
Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper is widely used in food packaging. It is oil-proof, waterproof and environmentally friendly. It is made of renewable materials, can directly contact food and is non-toxic and harmless. It also has excellent high temperature resistance and biodegradability. Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper can not only maintain the original flavor of food, but also effectively prevent grease penetration and reduce cleaning costs, which is in line with the sustainable development trend of modern food packaging.
Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper performs well in candy packaging. Its good oil and moisture resistance ensures that candy does not stick and stays fresh. It meets food-grade safety standards and can be directly in contact with candy, ensuring health and safety. At the same time, it is made of renewable materials and has degradable properties, which reduces the impact on the environment. It is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastic packaging. It is not only practical, but also can enhance the aesthetics of the packaging through customized design, which is suitable for various high-end candy packaging needs.
FAQ
How high a temperature can Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper withstand?
Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper can withstand temperatures between 180°C and 220°C, but different brands and specifications of paper may have different temperature resistance ranges. Before using at high temperatures, it is recommended to check the heat resistance specifications of the specific product to ensure that it is suitable for your needs.
Will the paper bleed oil when used in high-fat food packaging?
When packaging high-fat foods, if the paper thickness or quality is insufficient, slight oil bleeding may occur. To ensure the best oil resistance, choose thicker or higher-quality oil-proof paper, especially when used for high-fat contents.
Can Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper be used for refrigerated or frozen foods?
Yes. This type of paper usually has a certain degree of moisture resistance and can be used in refrigerated and frozen environments. However, long-term exposure to damp and cold environments may affect the structural stability of the paper. It is recommended to choose a more suitable paper type according to the specific application.
Will the paper be affected by high humidity environments?
Yes. Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper may become soft or absorb moisture in high humidity environments. Therefore, long-term exposure to moisture should be avoided during storage and use. Products with higher moisture resistance can be selected or desiccant can be used to assist storage.
Is Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper suitable for direct contact with food?
Yes. Most Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper meets food safety standards and can be directly in contact with food. But before use, it is best to confirm whether the product has food grade certification to ensure that it meets safety requirements.
What should I do if the paper is easily damaged during transportation?
If it is easily damaged during transportation or packaging, you can choose thicker paper or increase the number of packaging layers to enhance the durability of the paper. You can also consider using a more sturdy packaging method to protect the paper.
Is Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper suitable for foods with high moisture content?
This paper is mainly designed for oil resistance, and may have limited moisture resistance for foods with high moisture content. It is recommended to choose paper with better moisture resistance in this case, or use it with other moisture-proof packaging materials.
How to store Eco-Friendly Greaseproof Paper?
When storing, it should be placed in a dry, cool, ventilated environment, avoiding direct sunlight and high humidity conditions to maintain the performance and durability of the paper. Before using, make sure the paper is not damp or deteriorated.
