protaral® – Special formulations for food contact applications

Protects the packaging but above all it protects the food. Odourless, clear, resistant to acids. Safe.

protaral® coatings have been formulated to protect the packaging as well as the foodstuffs and consumers. For this reason, protaral® lacquers are continually submitted to stringent essential tests to certify their safety. An important characteristic of the special formulations for the food industry is very good resistance to acidity which makes protaral® interior coatings suitable for tomato sauce and other strongly acidic foods.
