Benefits wax packaging / Processing print
No electrostatic charge

Plastic films can build up considerable electrostatic charge, depending on humidity and temperature. Therefore high-speed packaging machines must be equipped with electrostatic dischargers to control the problem.

Wax coated paper packaging needs virtually no acclimatisation and is less influenced by seasonal changes in packaging production, storage and processing.
 
Other benefits are:

Excellent deadfold properties
Superb twistwrapping properties
High speed runnability on packaging machines
Versatility in printing and outstanding gloss
Cuts well and blunts knives less
Cost effective
