Blister Paperboard Is 100% Recyclable

Published: November 05, 2008

MENASHA, WI | Dura-Fibre adds Dura-Seal paperboard as a replacement for clamshell packaging to trap and fold-over blister packaging. Offered in 26-pt and 36-pt thicknesses, the multi-ply laminated material has a coated SBS top-ply and white bottom ply with a water-based heat seal coating that’s said to simplify the manufacturing process. This aqueous heat seal coating reportedly allows the fibers to be re-pulped without the need for special sorting or separation. Converters can benefit without required special equipment, and the resulting seals require standard industry sealing conditions at 360 deg F/3 sec dwell time/60 psi. Said to accommodate high quality graphics, has no crushed areas, and is 100% recyclable due to water-based coating. Visit at Pack Expo booth E-8938 or www.dura-fibre.com.
