For example, a water vapor barrier of less than 10 grams per square meter per day prevents moisture from penetrating the packaging. \u201cThis is important for dry snacks, for example, as they react very sensitively to fluctuations in humidity,\u201d explains Hackl. Conversely, moisture loss from the food is also prevented, meaning that the texture and freshness are retained throughout the entire shelf life. The specially developed barriers also ensure that frozen food does not freeze and freezer burn does not occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The oxygen barrier of thinbarrier 302 is lower than that of commercially available plastic monofilms and prevents oxygen from penetrating the packaging: \u201cThis preserves the natural flavors and ensures the quality of the food over the shelf life,\u201d says Hackl. At the same time, thinbarrier 302 is naturally free from optical brighteners (OBA) and intentionally added perfluorinated and polyfluorinated chemicals (PFAS). \u201cWe have added another functional, sealable barrier paper to our packaging papers,\u201d says Hackl.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With thinbarrier 302, delfort introduces a particularly high-performance barrier paper for heat-sealing and cold-sealing applications for flexible food packaging. \u201cThanks to a combined oxygen, water vapor and grease barrier, the paper achieves values comparable to commercially available plastic films and is thin and light,\u201d says Peter Hackl, Director of Packaging at delfort. \u201cWe are launching<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16117,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[1254],"class_list":{"0":"post-16116","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-flexible-packaging","8":"tag-delfort"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16116","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16116"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16116\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16118,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16116\/revisions\/16118"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16117"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16116"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16116"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpmirror.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16116"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
