EcoShield® VpCI®-144 Barrier Paper, Patented with 100% Recyclable Content (USDA Certified Biobased)
EcoShield® VpCI®-144 is the premium recyclable and repulpable moisture barrier corrosion inhibiting paper in the industry. It is coated with a water-based barrier coating and shows excellent oil and grease resistance. It also contains 69% USDA certified biobased content and is a qualified product under the mandatory federal purchasing initiative of the USDA BioPreferred® Program.* Historically, polyethylene and wax coatings have been used to seal porous paper to provide a moisture barrier and/or moisture-vapor barrier. When coated this way, the resulting paper product is an environmental problem and cannot be recycled through normal channels. EcoShield® VpCI®-144 paper provides a competitive environmentally friendly alternative to polyethylene and wax paper, with comparable water vapor barrier properties. It is fully recyclable/repulpable into other types of paper products such as boxes, cardboard, and other corrugated materials.
