Sappi introduces the market’s widest portfolio of heat-sealable papers for recyclable packaging

Sappi has expanded its range of functional packaging papers with a full set of heat-sealable solutions designed for converters, printers, and brand owners who want fibre-based alternatives to plastic. 

The papers are designed as mono-material to be recyclable in the paper waste stream, where suitable collection and sorting systems exist, and are suitable replacements for PE-coated papers and many plastic-based laminates. The broad mix of grammages and finishes makes it easier to replace existing solutions with minimal disruption.
