RECYCLABLE BUTTER WRAP: Plastic-free & recyclable butter-wrap added to our Earth Packaging range PLASTIC-FREE and recyclable butter wrap has been added to Sirane’s sustainable number of different barrier options available.
Our Earth Packaging range – with a Earthfilm Butter-Wrap uses coated papers to provide an easily recyclable alternative to the butter-wraps commonly used currently in the industry. All coatings are eco-friendly water-based barrier coatings -providing the required grease and moisture barrier and even our print option is eco-friendly.
Simon Balderson, Sirane MD, said: “We’re expanding our popular Earthfilm range by adding butter-wraps, which are sustainable, recyclable and plastic-free. “Our Earthfilm Butter-Wrap is exciting news for the butter industry. It’s got all the properties of butter-wraps currently used, but crucially is paper-recyclable. “We can even provide metallic gold/silver papers, giving the same aesthetics as the packaging currently used – while still offering a paper-recyclable product.”
Options for our butter-wrap include standard, Xtra (with moisture barrier on both sides) and metallised film (Ultra) with higher barrier as well as a metallised finish. We can also supply the materials as lids for butter packed in tubs.
