There is a new cutting-edge material available to dairies and butter producers in the U.S. The metallized paper is from AR Metallizing, a Nissha company located in Italy. Currently, it is exclusively offered in the United States by Century Printing and Packaging located in Greer, South Carolina.
This innovative product is grease-proof for butter and other dairy based products. Grease in handling butter is one of the biggest complaints from restaurants and consumers. Water-based inks adhere very well to the product which further attests to its sustainability and a continued commitment to environmentally friendly products. The new wrap also provides a light barrier which preserves the aging of the butter. Traditional butter wrappings allow light to penetrate the butter and promote faster aging of the product.
Foil is the traditional film used for butter wrapping by a large number of dairies and until recently it has been the industry standard. However, this new material preserves the butter longer, and is sustainable unlike traditional foil.
Providing higher sustainability and product wrapping for regional dairy and butter producers is something Century Printing and Packaging has made a significant commitment to for the industry. Butter producers need to ensure that their product can be protected from light which affects and progresses product aging. Water-based inks are good for food safe products. Century has a 25 year track record of using water based inks which are environmentally friendly.
Century Printing and Packaging will be exhibiting this ground breaking product for the butter industry at the International Dairy Deli Bakery Association (IDDBA) being held in Atlanta in June. We are proud to promote and display this revolutionary product for the butter and dairy industry.
We have plenty of this material in stock to fulfill regional dairy orders. This material from our Italian partners is revolutionizing the butter industry in terms of product integrity, preservation and sustainability.
Regional dairies contact us today about possibilities for your butter products and wrapping. We look forward to seeing you at the IDDBA in June and showing off this cutting-edge wrapping material. There is nothing like this material in the U.S. for dairy and butter producers so don’t miss the opportunity to engage and contact us regarding the possibilities for your dairy. Stand out and emerge from the competition with this incredible wrap that preserves your product.
At Century Printing and Packaging, our metallized paper runs with an added part to our Corona Treater allow us to treat this type of material for better printability and ink adhesion. Metallized paper can run at faster speeds than foil increasing productivity for a greater ROI and high-quality sealing.
Having the ability to run short volumes which is good for the slow movers of a product family, seasonal items, and test marketing is an advantage. Combined with medium and large volume capability, we are a great fit for companies using this brand new material.
