Custom Coatings & Flexible Packaging:
A Combination of Layers & Substrates

custom coatingsCustom coatings are a necessary part of flexible packaging and widely used in today’s world. It is used to package a multitude of products such as fast-foods, coffee, bulk liquids, meats, cheese, spices and more. A mixture of substrates and custom waterbased coatings are combined at various levels to create a barrier protection for products packaging.

A typical package may contain several layers of substrates and coatings. Two typical combinations are demonstrated in the Coating Technology for Flexible Packaging white paper published by TAPPI. Layers consist of various levels of PET. Printed, Adhesive coatings, Primers, Foils and LDPE.  Learn more about standard types of barrier coatings for flexible packaging, how they are applied and the benefits of custom coating formulation.
