Technical data sheet

Perfect paper for trayliners

Holmen SURE combines the best of two categories. It's a packaging paper with all the environmental advantages of being sustainably produced from a traceable and recyclable raw material. It's also a graphical paper, providing you with the best possible basis for great print results. This makes it perfect for restaurant or fast food trayliners, with exquisite visual design possibilities. Holmen SURE can also be used as a base paper for applications where food contact certification is required.

Printing on Holmen SURE

Paper properties such as brightness, bulk and opacity, are defining factors for the print result. With Holmen SURE you can easily create a high-class impression. The paper has a smooth and even surface, making it great for image and colour reproduction. The images and colours impress in detail and contrast without smearing. For the best print results, be sure to use the correct colour profile for your selected printing method and paper.

Holmen SURE comes in two light-weight grammages, but thanks to its high bulk properties, the sheet still has high stiffness and stability. The use of fresh fibres also gives the paper great opacity, ensuring that you get the best prerequisites for a great print result.

FDA food contact approval

FDA stands for the United States’ Food and Drug Administration. The FDA approval confirms that the paper is allowed to be exported to the US for food contact, to be sold directly but also for further processing and refinement. To get the approvals, the surface of the material has to be free of any toxic contaminants and the material should not potentially become a source of toxic contamination.

BfR food contact approval

BfR stands for Bundesinstitut für Risikobewertung, which is the German federal institute for risk assessment. Being approved by BfR confirms adherence to the Framework regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004, which applies to all food contact materials within the European Union.
