At Azul-Kote, sustainability isn’t an afterthought—it’s the foundation of everything we do. Our water-based barrier coating is engineered to reduce environmental impact without compromising performance, helping brands transition toward a more sustainable future in packaging.
Azul-Kote eliminates the need for traditional plastic or wax coatings by offering a water-based alternative that significantly reduces the use of harmful chemicals and petroleum-based materials. This means fewer pollutants, lower carbon emissions, and a cleaner end-of-life process for packaging.
AUnlike many conventional coatings that hinder recyclability, Azul-Kote is designed to work within existing recycling and composting systems. It helps maintain fiber integrity, making it easier for coated paper or board to be repulped and reused. In compostable formats, Azul-Kote breaks down without leaving behind harmful residues.
AAzul-Kote supports circular economy principles by enabling packaging materials to be reused or returned to nature more effectively. By extending the life of paper-based products and reducing reliance on single-use plastics, Azul-Kote helps businesses meet both regulatory requirements and consumer expectations for greener solutions.
ACommitted to transparency and environmental stewardship, Azul-Kote meets key industry standards for sustainability, including compliance with FDA/EC food-contact safety and certifications for compostability and recyclability where applicable.
AWhether you’re a packaging converter, brand owner, or retailer, Azul-Kote offers a forward-thinking, responsible solution that aligns with your environmental goals. Together, we can create packaging that performs with purpose—and protects with care.
