WHITE FOOD GRADE COATED ONE SIDE BUTTER PAPER 120 GSM

Product Details

White Food Grade Coated One Side Butter Paper 120 GSM refers to a specialized paper used primarily in the food industry for packaging and food handling. Below are the detailed specifications for this type of paper: 1. Paper Type: Food Grade: The paper is made with materials that are safe for direct contact with food. It complies with food safety regulations and is typically free of harmful chemicals or substances that could contaminate food. 2. Coated One Side: Coated (One Side): One side of the paper is coated to provide a smooth and shiny surface, typically for improved barrier properties, aesthetic appeal, and ease of printing. The uncoated side is typically rougher, providing a better grip or absorbency, which is useful in certain food packaging applications. The coating generally enhances water resistance, grease resistance, and moisture protection, making it ideal for wrapping greasy or moist foods. 3. Weight: 120 GSM (Grams per Square Meter): This indicates that the paper has a moderate weight, making it strong enough for wrapping or packaging applications without being too thick or rigid. It offers a balance between flexibility and durability. 4. Color: White: The paper is white, which not only looks clean and appealing but also provides a good contrast for printing logos, branding, or food information. 5. Thickness: 0.12 to 0.15 mm: The typical thickness of 120 GSM paper is suitable for applications like food packaging or wrapping, where the paper needs to be sturdy but still flexible. 6. Finish: Coated Side: The coated side is typically smooth and shiny, giving it a more premium appearance and feel. This coating can help in better printing of designs and provide a barrier against oil, moisture, and other contaminants. Uncoated Side: The uncoated side tends to be more porous and rough, offering better absorbency, which can be useful in handling greasy or moist foods. 7. Barrier Properties: Grease and Oil Resistance: The coating on the paper provides resistance to grease, oils, and other food liquids. This makes it suitable for packaging items such as sandwiches, pastries, and fast food items like burgers or fried food. Moisture Resistance: The coating also helps reduce moisture absorption, keeping food dry and preventing leakage. 8. Printability: Good for Printing: The coated side allows for high-quality printing, which is ideal for branding, logos, or product information. Food companies can print on the coated side to improve the presentation and marketing of the product. 9. Applications: Food Packaging: This paper is commonly used for wrapping bakery products (like bread, cakes, and pastries), sandwiches, and fast food. Butter Paper: It is often called butter paper because of its use in wrapping butter and other fatty foods, keeping them protected from external contamination. Food Service: It can be used in restaurants, delis, or takeaway packaging, such as for wrapping greasy or oily food items. Tray Liners: Used in food trays to line food items and absorb any excess oil or moisture. 10. Environmental Impact: Eco-Friendly Option: Many food-grade butter papers are made from renewable, sustainable resources like wood pulp. It is important to confirm with the supplier whether the paper is recyclable or compostable. Biodegradable: As long as the coating is not plastic-based, many food-grade papers are biodegradable, making them more eco-friendly compared to other materials.
