Water-Based coated cupstock board is a functional material created by surface-treating food-grade base paper with eco-friendly water-based coatings. Unlike traditional PE-laminated paper, this product utilizes water-based dispersions as barrier coatings. It maintains outstanding protective properties while offering superior environmental benefits and sustainability.
Water-Based Coating vs PE Lamination
| Feature | Water-Based Coating | PE Lamination |
|---|---|---|
| Eco-Friendliness | Biodegradable, compostable coating | Non-biodegradable plastic layer |
| Recyclability | Easier repulping and paper recycling | Difficult to separate from fiber |
| Carbon Footprint | Significantly lower | Higher (petroleum-based) |
| Heat Resistance | >90°C (194°F) for hot cups | >90°C (194°F) |
| Food Safety | No solvent residue, no microplastics | Potential microplastic concerns |
