In theory, ecological paper is not an alimentary paper, but the Food Paper Portugal tried to overcome this difficulty and create an ecological food paper, using kraft paper pulp, applying our WS waterproof treatment and greaseproof treatment with food resin on one or both faces, and only after this process the ecological food paper is ready to be printed and cut to the size that the customer wants.

Due to the WS treatment, the result is an ecological paper of great resistance, suitable for products with a high content of liquids and fats, resulting in an ecological paper practically impermeable with greaseproof treatment offering a total guarantee that the fats in the food won’t deteriorate it.

On the otherside, obtaining this kind of paper wasn’t our only goal, so we decided to personalise the ecological paper with water-based and oxidising drying food ink ,in order to guarantee perfect food safety and product conservation, valuing the image and presentation of our custtomer’s products.

The Environmentally-Friendly Paper is not very popular in the food industry, so we wanted to bring the texture and peculiar character of this paper and along with our principles of preservation of the planet, create a sustainable, recyclable alimentary Environmentally- Friendly Paper which is certified to be in contact with food, so we work with a cellulose base that mixes various types of fibers obtained in the pulp of wood called "softwood” as the kraft paper pulp is essential, and we also put a natural barrier on one or even both sides that does not let the printing paper chemicals or the alimentary ink diffuse just as it is expected of a quality alimentary paper.

The result of perfect symbiosis are the Alimentary Environmentally-Friendly Papers:
