High-Barrier Food-Grade PE Coated Paper Roll with Customizable Grammage for Cup Forming

Our PE Coated Paper Roll is a premium, ready-to-convert laminated paperboard designed specifically for high-speed production of disposable paper cups, food containers, and flexible packaging. Manufactured by extruding a uniform layer of high-quality polyethylene (LDPE or MDPE) onto food-grade cupstock base paper, this material delivers exceptional liquid barrier performance, heat-sealability, and mechanical strength. Supplied in convenient roll form, it ensures seamless feeding and consistent output on automatic cup-forming machines, die-cutters, and slitting lines.

• Excellent water, oil, and moisture resistance with Cobb value ≤ 25 g/m² (180 seconds test), guaranteeing zero leakage for hot beverages (up to 95°C) and cold drinks.

• Smooth, pinhole-free coating surface prevents liquid penetration through cup sidewalls and bottoms.

• Outstanding hot-tack strength ensures secure sealing of cup bottoms and side seams at standard cup-forming temperatures (150°C – 220°C).

• Consistent sealing performance across high-speed production lines (up to 250 cups per minute), minimizing rejects and downtime.

• Superior Taber stiffness (≥ 5.0 mN·m for 250 gsm board) prevents cup deformation under filling weight and stacking pressure.

• Excellent tear resistance and tensile strength for smooth roll unwinding and crease-free forming.

• Clay-coated top side with PPS roughness ≤ 2.0µm delivers vibrant, high-definition flexo/offset printing results.

• PE coating on the reverse side enhances cup aesthetics and provides a comfortable tactile finish.

We prioritize consumer safety and regulatory adherence. Our PE coated paper rolls are certified to meet:

• US FDA (21 CFR 176.170) – direct food contact approval.

• EU Framework Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 and German BfR Recommendation XXXVI.

• ISO 22000 food safety management system.

• FSC® Certification (available upon request) – ensuring responsible fiber sourcing.

• Comprehensive migration testing conducted by SGS / BV / Intertek (reports available on request).

Our PE coated paper rolls are suitable for a wide spectrum of foodservice packaging:

We go beyond standard offerings to support your unique requirements:

• Base Paper Grammage: Customized for light-weighting or heavy-duty applications.

• PE Coating Weight: Adjustable to meet specific sealing strength or barrier demands.

• Single vs. Double-Side Coating: Choose based on whether your cups hold hot liquids, oily foods, or require external moisture protection.

• Roll Slitting: Precision slit to your exact width to eliminate waste and reduce secondary cutting.

• Pre-Printing Option: Available in plain white, solid colors, or full-CMYK pre-printed designs (with food-safe inks) – ready for cup-forming immediately after lamination.

• Antimicrobial Coating Additive: Optional treatment to extend product shelf life (hygiene-sensitive applications).

Our in-house laboratory performs rigorous quality checks on every production batch:

• Grammage & Caliper: ISO 536 & ISO 534

• Cobb Value (Water Absorption): ISO 535

• Burst Strength: ISO 2758

• Tensile Strength: ISO 1924-2

• Stiffness (Taber): ISO 2493-1

• Sealing Strength: Simulated cup-forming tests

• Appearance Inspection: Pin-hole detection and surface defect scanning

We provide full traceability from pulp lot to final roll, ensuring total accountability.

• Factory Direct Pricing: Competitive cost structure with no brokerage fees – ideal for volume buyers.

• Technical Support: Our application engineers offer remote or on-site assistance for cup-forming machine optimization, reducing your scrap rate.

• Stable Supply: Long-term contracts welcomed with dedicated production lines to secure your supply chain.

• Sustainability Commitment: We actively develop recyclable and repulpable PE coating alternatives to help you meet future environmental regulations.

• Proven Export Track Record: Trusted by buyers across North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.
