When packaging needs to balance shelf appeal with functionality, Formakote™ White GR steps up. This coated two side folding boxboard is designed specifically for food service and fast-moving consumer goods, delivering exceptional print quality on one side and effective grease resistance on the other. It’s the board of choice for brand owners who won’t compromise on presentation or product protection.
A Clean, Durable Solution for Food Service
Formakote™ White GR is ideally suited to applications where both visual quality and barrier performance are essential. The board features a double blade-coated front that ensures high colour fidelity and sharp, detailed graphics. On the reverse side, a single rod coating provides a smooth surface with built-in grease resistance that protects against oil and moisture penetration. This makes it particularly well suited to quick service restaurants, takeaway outlets, and ready-to-eat food packaging.
Versatile Applications Across Industries
While it was developed with food service in mind, Formakote™ White GR has proven to be a versatile performer across a wide range of sectors. In the FMCG space, it’s an excellent fit for pet food packaging, taco sleeves, chocolate wraps, and confectionery cartons – it’s also suitable for use in freezer and chilled environments. In the fast food sector, think burger clamshells, chip trays, and takeaway cartons – wherever oil and moisture contact are expected, this board holds its own.
Exceptional Print Performance
With its high-quality coated front, Formakote™ White GR is designed for sheet-fed, offset, digital, and flexographic printing. The smooth surface handles complex graphics with clarity and precision, making it ideal for bold branding and detailed designs. Importantly, the reverse side is also fully printable, giving brands flexibility to extend their visual identity across all visible surfaces of their packaging.
Grease Resistance – Strong Presentation
Grease resistance isn’t just a functional benefit – it also protects the integrity of your brand. Formakote™ White GR is certified for direct food contact and resists oil staining and moisture absorption at Kit Level 7. This means your packaging maintains its clean, crisp appearance even in high-contact food environments. This not only helps products look better on arrival but also reduces the likelihood of compromised packaging during storage, handling, or transport.
