Barrier Board Walki®Pack

Within our product line Walki®Pack, Walki has developed a range of barrier boards specially designed for the folding carton market. By using barrier boards the need for inner wrapping for foodstuffs is largely reduced. Thereby also the amount of packaging needed is reduced, with a positive environmental impact as a consequence. Walki®Pack is typically used for applications for direct food contact and for non-food packages in end-use sectors like frozen food, fresh food, non food, detergent, pet food, menu trays and lids, cosmetic, beverages and tobacco.

Walki®Pack Chill is a one side polymer coated material which is designed to either protect the pack contents from the external environment or to protect the pack from moisture or grease from the product itself.
Walki®Pack Frost – To meet the demands of longer term, frozen storage or use in extreme damp conditions, Walki®Pack Frost is recommended. Here we use only hard sized FBB or SBS boards in conjunction with polymer coatings to suit the product/end use requirements. Walki®Pack Frost can be glued or heat sealed. Typical end uses are for fish, burgers, vegetables and confectionary cartons.
Walki®Pack GR – Provided with special polymers to protect the carton board from ingress and staining from high fat content. Together with a good carton design Walki®Pack GR offers better protection than LDPE. Typical end uses include pet food and cooked chicken product cartons.

Walki®Pack Foil – Appropriate baseboards are laminated with aluminium foil using either adhesive or polymer coatings. Improved barrier and thermal resistance allow this material to be used for insulative closures for pre heated ready meals or where cartons require an improved oxygen barrier.

Walki®Pack Tray – A converted board material, designed for food tray applications. The products are a combination of coated or uncoated SBS board types, glue laminated with special PET films to meet customer and product requirements. Typical end uses are for folded or pressed trays. Properties include functions like dual ovenability, heat and grease resistance, seal ability to film and laminated lidding materials.
Walki®Pack Metalex – High quality metallized and holographic films laminated with polymers or adhesives to a range of suitable base boards, that gives the customer a wide range of decorative and functional barrier opportunities to choose from. Typical end uses are for pharmaceutical, cosmetic, tobacco and luxury goods cartons.
Walki®Pack D – Is a polymer laminated, board based composite material. Designed for printed detergent packages, it provides a water vapour barrier as well as producing excellent stiffness values for achieving good box compression strength. The specification can be tailored to optimise strength from the materials used.

Flexible Packaging Materials Walki®Flex

One of Walki’s fields of strong expertise is paper based flexible packaging material. We meet our customers’ needs of moisture, grease, gas and aroma barriers by combining paper with materials such as plastic and aluminium foil. Whatever the end-use may be, our material meets the requirements of packaging hygiene, extended preservation times and minimal environmental impact.

Because of our long experience and close co-operation with the packaging industry we understand the needs of the whole production chain: printing, gluing and heat-sealing are crucial aspects for packaging manufacturers.

Industries using the packaging require hygiene and effective protection. Distribution requires lightweight and durable packaging. Retailers need an attractive appearance and cost effective product preservation. End users appreciate products that are easy to open. Throughout the chain, environmental sustainability is required. All these needs are carefully considered when Walki develop Walki®Flex products.
