Papkot makes the materials, not the pack
For converters and packagers
A paper cup has a plastic lining. A folding carton resists grease with PFAS. A pack needs a seal. A pack needs a closure. Papkot works on these four problems.
Papkot supplies the chemistry and the know-how. You make the pack, on your own machines.
On your line
Where each Papkot material goes on the line
Papermaking additives go into the fibre at the mill. Coatings go on the surface. Today they run offline, on rod, gravure and blade lines. Adhesives go between surfaces, at the glue line.
Pack by pack
What goes where on each pack
Each pack shows the Papkot material, where it goes and the line that puts it there.
On the surface · Coating line
Paper cups
A water barrier coating on the cup board, in place of the plastic lining. The cups comply with the EU Single-Use Plastics Directive (SUPD). Papkot cup coatings already compete on cost with PE extrusion.

Transparent paper
The TR series coating clears transparent paper. On two papers, TR5 lowered haze by 20 to 29 points. Vetrino is a transparent paper made with the TR series coating.
