Schur^®PolyPaper is based on polyethylene. The recipe and the production process give texture, look and deadfold effect like paper together with the strength and environmentally friendly qualities of polyethylene. This makes the material perfect in product segments where paper-look is an advantage, but where paper would not meet the requirements in respect of strength and durability, e.g. in damp environments. The strength of the material means that it will hardly be torn and additionally it ensures a friction-less packing process.

By means of coextrusion technique Schur^®PolyPaper can be produced in various combinations, customised to both packing process and product.

A Schur^®PolyPaper bag offers qualities that seem to be in great demand from consumer side: Paper-look, paper-feeling, and deadfold. Deadfold offers recloseability, when the bag top is folded. The attractive paper-look provides a feeling of home-made products.
