The market is rapidly demanding alternatives to conventional packaging, prompting brands to seek reliable, truly green options. Eastern Printing Materials (EPM) is revolutionizing the sector by offering advanced bio-based packaging in Dubai through our plant-derived, 100% plastic-free Aqua Green line.
Our core mission is tied to the circular economy: ensuring that materials are sourced sustainably and returned to nature safely. By eliminating petroleum-based components, EPM helps clients avoid the financial and environmental penalties associated with non-recyclable items under global regulations like the Extended Producers Responsibility (EPR).
EPM’s Aqua Green coatings are engineered to match the barrier performance of traditional plastics and waxes while guaranteeing consumer safety and ecological integrity. All our coatings are 100% plastic-free, odourless, solvent-free, and safe for direct food contact.

Choosing EPM is an investment in ethical, high-quality, sustainable packaging solutions in Dubai backed by stringent international compliance.
EPM’s coatings are biodegradable and easily processed at the end of their life cycle. Unlike synthetic products, which mostly end up in landfills, our coated papers can be recycled using standard water-based industrial processes called hydro pulping, requiring no extra chemicals. If accidentally introduced into the environment, the coating is microbe-friendly and turns into fertilizer, nourishing the soil instead of polluting it. Our ultimate aerobic biodegradation confirms performance above the 90% requirement, adhering to ISO 17088-2021.
Our products assure safety through comprehensive third-party certification:
US FDA Compliant: Meets US Food and Drug Administration standards for contact with dry, aqueous, and fatty foods.
RoHS Certified: Guaranteed free of heavy metals and hazardous substances.
PFAS-Free and Phthalate-Free: No use of harmful fluorinated chemicals or plasticisers.
Our commitment to bio-based packaging in Dubai extends to consumables like STUCCO CP200 Bio-Based Adhesive. This adhesive becomes fully transparent and transfers no odour or colour when dry. Crucially, it is specifically engineered to bond different materials, such as paper (an absorbing surface) to varnished paper or plastic film (non-absorbing surfaces). This capability is vital for creating recyclable cartons, where the glue holds the window film in place without compromising the item’s recyclability or food safety.
EPM ensures rapid delivery for large-scale operations with a lead time capacity of 14 metric tons per day and packaging options from 20 kg up to 1100 kg IBCs.
