Characteristics
Food safe
The packaging can come into direct contact with food. The food packaging is therefore food-safe.
MAP capable
Modified Atmosphere Packaging: Packaging under a modified protective atmosphere. The packaging is able to contain a protective atmosphere.
Sustainable
The product contains at least one sustainable aspect for the environment.
material
Paper
Paper is usually made from fiber. The most important fiber materials include cellulose, wood pulp and waste paper pulp. Further information can be found here: Wikipedia
FSC paper
FSC stands for “Forest Stewardship Council”. The international certification system for more sustainable forestry ensures compliance with sustainable criteria. FSC paper is a certified paper that comes from sustainable and environmentally friendly forest management.
FSC wood
FSC stands for “Forest Stewardship Council”. The international certification system for more sustainable forestry ensures compliance with sustainable criteria. FSC wood is certified wood that comes from sustainable and environmentally friendly forest management.
Bagasse
Bagasse is a purely bio-based material that is completely compostable. It is a by-product of sugar raw production.

PP
Polypropylene is one of the most commonly used plastics. The material has a long shelf life and is largely heat-resistant and is used in a wide variety of areas.

OPP
This is “oriented polypropylene”, the material is stretched in one direction and is therefore more tear-resistant and has a higher rigidity than pure PP film.
P.E
Polyethylene is one of the most commonly used plastics. The material is durable and cold-resistant. Further information can be found here: Wikipedia
PET
Polyethylene terephthalate is a versatile and stable plastic from the polyester family. Further information can be found here: Wikipedia
LDPE
LDPE is a high-quality, smooth and shiny film that is also soft. From a thickness of 50 µm it can also be frozen. Further information can be found here: Wikipedia
rLDPE
This is the recycled version of the environmentally friendly plastic LDPE.
HDPE
The HD stands for “high density” polyethylene. The material has a higher density and is therefore tougher and more dimensionally stable.
PLA
Polylactide acid is a clear bioplastic and is obtained from renewable and natural raw materials. Further information can be found here: Wikipedia
CPLA
The C stands for crystallized PLA. The result is a 100% compostable bioplastic that is heat-resistant up to 85°C.
Nitrile
Is made from natural rubber, is elastic and tear-resistant and suitable for allergy sufferers. Further information can be found here: Wikipedia
latex
The material is stretchy and tear-resistant. A distinction is made between synthetic and natural latex. Natural latex is obtained from the milky sap of the rubber tree, also known as the rubber tree. Synthetic latex is made from petroleum.
Vinyltrile
Is an innovative alternative to natural latex or pure synthetic rubber. The vinyl and nitrile composition ensures improved tear resistance.
Composite
Composites are packaging materials consisting of at least two different materials that are connected to each other over the entire surface and cannot be separated by hand. Further information can be found here: Wikipedia
aluminum
The recyclable material is stable and particularly suitable for transporting hot food.
