bio based coating

Eastern Printing Materials (EPM) is revolutionizing the packaging sector by supplying high-performance, plant-derived solutions essential for sustainable food packaging in Dubai. Our Aqua Green series directly addresses the environmental crisis caused by traditional plastics, which often end up in landfills, with only about 7% of synthetic packaging ever being recycled. By utilizing bio-based components, our products are 100% plastic-free, solvent-free, odorless, and generated from natural resources, establishing a true commitment to the circular economy.

Unrivalled Food Safety and Barrier Protection

We provide coatings certified for direct food contact safe coating in Dubai, giving brand owners confidence in product safety and compliance. Our coatings are rigorously tested and adhere to stringent global standards: they are food-safe coating materials, complying with US FDA regulations (21 CFR 176.170 and 176.180), making them suitable for contact with aqueous, fatty, and dry foods. Furthermore, the Aqua Green line is certified RoHS compliant (heavy metal-free), Phthalate-Free, and PFAS-Free, eliminating concerns over common contaminants.

A key benefit of our barrier technology is its superior defense against degradation. Our materials act as effective barriers, with a Water Vapor Transmission Rate (WVTR) comparable to poly-coated paper. Crucially, they excel in fat and oil defense:

Advanced Applications for Sustainable Food Packaging Solutions

EPM’s coatings are versatile, designed to replace polyethylene across numerous applications:

D95 Heat Sealable: Ideal for hot liquid cups (withstanding up to 140°C), frozen meat packaging, and food wraps. This product offers direct food contact safe coating in Dubai for applications requiring heat sealing without glue.

D19 Microwavable: Engineered for paper plates, cups, and food containers that require reheating up to 230°C. This product is a highly heat-resistant coating designed to be safe during heating and consumption.

Total Compliance and Biodegradable Packaging in Dubai

To fully achieve sustainable food packaging solutions, all components must be eco-friendly. Our STUCCO CP200 adhesive is a direct food contact safe coating in Dubai that is bio-based, biodegradable, and safe for internal packaging, bonding, absorbing and non-absorbing surfaces while becoming completely transparent and transferring no odour or colour.

EPM’s products contribute directly to biodegradable packaging in Dubai. Our materials are highly compostable and re-pulpable; coated paper can be recycled using hydro pulping with water alone, without requiring additional chemicals. If discarded into the soil, the coating acts as a fertilizer and is safe for microbes and earthworms. By implementing EPM’s OGR coating in Dubai and other sustainable solutions, businesses can actively avoid penalties associated with Extended Producers Responsibility (EPR) regulations on non-recyclable goods.
