For the sake of environmental protection and food safety, consumers are more willing to accept paper-packaged takeout products. However, after transportation, the food will become cold. Can the food and paper packaging be put into the microwave oven for heating?

This smooth layer is called a "coating" which is equivalent to a transparent film covering the paper. Weller can provide you with PP, PET, PLA, PET coatings to meet your market needs, so that you can Paper packaging is waterproof and oil-proof, and the PP and PET coatings can be heated to 100°C. Water in food can boil at 100° after being heated in a microwave oven, but PP and PET coatings can withstand heat up to 150°, so the plastic material in the coating will not be transferred to the food.
