Benefits wax packaging / Processing print
High-speed runnability on packaging machines

Waxed paper is ‘fast and forgiving’, allowing packaging machines to run at maximum speed. Alternative materials are less forgiving. Wax coated paper has the right stiffness and slip properties, enabling high speed cutting of the wraps. Paper stiffness makes the material less susceptible to turbulence (more even feed) in the packaging machine.
 
Other benefits are:

Excellent deadfold properties
Superb twistwrapping properties
Versatility in printing and outstanding gloss
No electrostatic charge
Cuts well and blunts knives less
Cost effective
