Lecta has launched EraCup Natural Pure, an innovative solid bleached board (SBB) designed for more sustainable, high-performance packaging. Developed from renewable resources, it combines advanced barrier performance with industrial efficiency, addressing the growing demand for fiber-based alternatives to traditional plastic-coated materials.
EraCup Natural Pure’s innovative bio-based barrier coating, based on naturally occurring plant sugars, provides an effective plastic-free barrier. Combined with a specific sealing varnish applied on engineered sealing areas, it enables the production of SUPD-compliant paper cups, offering a more sustainable alternative to conventional plastic-based coatings.
Available in grammages from 200 to 320 g/m², it features an uncoated, smooth surface with a natural appearance, ideally suited for both flexographic and offset printing. Its structure has been engineered to ensure optimal stiffness, bending behavior and performance during converting and cup forming processes at industrial scale.
Fully repulpable and recyclable within standard paper recycling streams, EraCup Natural Pure supports the transition towards more circular packaging solutions while delivering the functional performance required for on-the-go applications, including reliable resistance to water and grease.
The product complements the existing EraCup range, including EraCup Natural and EraBase 1S, expanding the portfolio with an advanced solution based on renewable, bio-based and non-chemically modified resources.
