What is aseptic packaging paper?

HOME > News
Aseptic packing paper is a paper packaging material composed of polyethylene, paper, aluminum foil, etc., which is made of special food cardboard as the base material.

There are four main raw materials for sterile packaging paper: cardboard, polyethylene, aluminum foil, and ink. Cardboard does not directly contact the contents of the packaging, but it is an important component of the packaging, mainly used to enhance the stiffness and hardness of the packaging after molding. Food grade polyethylene is mainly used to block liquid leakage and microbial invasion. Aluminum foil is mainly used to avoid light and block breathability, keeping the contents from oxidation, reducing nutrient loss, and maintaining a fresh taste. The weight of ink in sterile packaging is negligible, but it is very important for hygiene and safety. At present, the ink used for printing dairy and beverage packaging on the market is mainly solvent based ink and water-based ink.
 
The working principle of sterile packaging paper:
The key to sterile packaging paper lies in its internal sterilization process. In a sterile packaging machine, the paper is first subjected to high-temperature steam treatment, which can kill all potential microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and molds. Then, the paper is filled with food in a sterile environment to ensure that the food is not contaminated before entering the packaging container. Finally, the packaging container is sealed to create a sterile environment where food can be safely stored.
 
Application of Aseptic Packaging Paper:
Aseptic packaging paper is widely used in the processing of liquid dairy products, plant protein beverages, fruit juice beverages, alcoholic products, and drinking water, especially for products that require long-term storage and cannot be treated with preservatives. For example, milk, fruit juice and beverages, alcoholic beverages, water, tomato products, soups, sweets, nutritional foods, and other products. In addition, sterile packaging is also used in the medical field to store drugs and medical supplies, ensuring that they remain sterile before use.
 
The environmental advantages of sterile packaging paper:
One significant advantage of sterile packaging paper is its recyclability. Compared to some plastic packaging, sterile packaging paper is easier to recycle and reuse, thereby reducing its impact on the environment. In addition, sterile packaging reduces food waste as it allows food to remain fresh for a longer period of time.
 
The future trend of sterile packaging paper:
With the advancement of technology, the manufacturing process of sterile packaging paper is becoming increasingly efficient and environmentally friendly. For example, some manufacturers are developing biodegradable sterile packaging materials that can naturally decompose after disposal, further reducing their impact on the environment. In addition, with consumers' increasing attention to health and sustainable lifestyles, the market demand for sterile packaging paper is expected to continue to grow.
 
Innovation of sterile packaging paper:
In order to meet the constantly changing market demands, manufacturers of sterile packaging paper are constantly exploring new technologies and materials. For example, some new sterile packaging materials use nanotechnology to provide stronger protective barriers, prevent oxygen and moisture from penetrating, and extend the shelf life of food. In addition, the development of intelligent aseptic packaging systems can monitor the temperature and humidity during the packaging process in real time, ensuring that food remains in optimal condition throughout the entire supply chain.
