This Christmas season, Weilburger Graphics by Stahl, part of the Stahl Packaging Coatings division, has something truly special in store! 🎄✨ In collaboration with the Arnd Erbel bakery in Dachsbach, Germany, we’ve developed an innovative alternative to the traditional film packaging for the beloved Tres Aromas gingerbread.🍪 Our solution? A beautifully coated wrapping paper featuring SENOLITH® WB FP PLUS BARRIER COATING 60F 3000, which offers both food safety and enhanced durability. For the visual effect, we used SENOFLEX WB FP PLUS flexo colors on the reverse side to perfectly match the existing cardboard packaging. Next, we applied SENOLITH® WB FP PLUS GLOSS COATING 60F 1010 for a smooth finish, along with SENOSOFT® WB FP MATT COATING 20F 5000 in a spot coating to create a beautiful tactile effect. This project is a great example of how plastic in packaging can be replaced without sacrificing aesthetics or quality. 🌿💚 If you’d like to create a similar packaging yourself, please contact us here: https://okt.to/COP3qS
