    Water-based Coatings

    Our water-based coatings and lamination solutions are alternatives to wax and poly-based solutions.  Many of our water-based solutions are 100% recyclable, repulpable, compostable, and biodegradable.  Our solutions are engineered using a combination of products supplied by long-term relationships with aqueous suppliers and our own home-blend solutions.  These combinations increase the added value, are cost-effective, and provide differentiated properties that are not offered by other industry-standard solutions.
    Current solutions include coating materials:
    + PVA
    + EVA
    + EVOH
    + PVDC
    + HDPE
    + LDPE emulsions
    + Natural rubber
    + Synthetic latex
    + Styrene-acrylic
    + Styrene-acrylonitrile
    + Styrene-butadiene
    + PET emulsions
