Ultrasonic sealing: Enabling Sustainability
Trend towards mono materials and paper
Mono-materials and paper composites for packaging are increasingly in demand and the number of inquiries regarding new recyclable materials is increasing at the ultrasonic laboratory of Herrmann Ultraschall. Many of the major food companies have set themselves high sustainability targets and are testing the new materials. Next to it, the ultrasonic sealing of cardboard composites with and without aluminum barrier is already a proven process. Bioplastics such as PLA also demonstrate good ultrasonic sealing properties, which is already being applied with coffee capsules.
