These Sappi paper packaging solutions have been introduced by the brand in Europe as a series of high-barrier paper packaging products that will help brands to adhere to changing regulations. The solutions are positioned as paper-based alternatives to multilayer foils and plastics, and come in the Guard Pro OHS and Guard Pro OMH varieties.
Guard Pro OHS is positioned as a high-barrier paper packaging that's heat-sealable for use in flow wraps, pouches and sachets with protection against water vapor, oxygen, grease and mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons and mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbons (MOSH/MOAH). The Guard Pro OMH is similar in performance, but designed with cold-seal applications in mind.
Sales Director Filip van Ranst commented on the new Sappi paper packaging solutions saying, "With Guard Pro OHS and Guard Pro OMH, we’re giving the market more flexibility and choice when selecting recyclable, high-barrier papers."
