Food certified paper

Holmen SURE is a very cost-efficient protective paper that can be used with or without printing. It's used in different types of industrial packaging processes, not least within industrial food packaging. Light and strong – and with food certifications.

Paper for disposable trayliners and placemats

Trayliners and placemats are typical applications where the protection paper becomes an important part of your restaurant's brand experience. Not just protecting the food, but part of the visual and tactile experience.

Holmen SURE is a protective packaging paper made from 100% fresh fibres, a by-product from sustainably managed forests. With it's smooth surface, it comes with all the benefits of a graphical paper, providing you with the best possible base for exquisite visual design possibilities.

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.
