Purekote 23589 is a coating that can be used safely in food packaging applications regulated by the U.S. FDA. The water-based coating delivers a matte appearance and velvety feel to paper and plastic bags, pouches, lidding films, foil bags, and sachets. Coating can be applied via gravure or flexographic process with an enclosed-chamber doctor blade. It does not have temperature limitations. Purekote can be pattern applied to create packaging with both matte sections and clear “windows,” that allow consumers to see the product inside. Ashland Inc., www.ashland.com.
