Coatings for the Inside of Coffee Capsules

Aroma protection and consistent quality

Thanks to their excellent barrier properties, aluminum coffee capsules optimally protect the coffee powder from disruptive environmental influences such as air, light and moisture, thus ensuring that the full aroma of the coffee is retained.

Our heat seal coatings for the internal coating of coffee capsules comply with all current global food regulations. In cooperation with our customers, we develop product solutions that are precisely customized to our customers' systems.

We develop product solutions that not only meet the highest food regulatory standards, but also fulfill the individual requirements of our customers.

How heat seal coatings can contribute to sustainable packaging

Increasing recycling rates and the resulting different product qualities of recycled materials face packaging manufacturers with new challenges. Our heat seal coatings are also suitable for sealing partners made of recycled aluminum and are thus able to compensate for variations in the quality of sealing partners. In this way, our products can help increase the use of circular materials in packaging and thus make a valuable contribution to greater sustainability.
