According to the European Organisation for Packaging and the Environment, Water-based barrier coatings are aqueous dispersion coatings that create a hydrophobic barrier on paper. These coatings are derived from natural sources and are plastic-free, making them biodegradable and compostable. They consist of water, fillers, additives, and binders. The primary purpose of water-based barrier coatings is to seal the paper substrate and protect packaging from external and internal factors. They keep packaging visually appealing and functional without compromise. Depending on the product, these coatings protect against substances such as fat, water, water vapor, dairy products, alcohol, oil, or alkali throughout the packaging's lifespan. Water-based barrier coatings are versatile and find applications in packaging conversion, printing, and the paper industry. Their adaptability and eco-friendly nature make them a valuable choice for enhancing packaging performance and sustainability.
