24 Feb 2025 Evaluate

Cosmo First’s 100% subsidiary -- Cosmo Specialty Chemicals has launched its innovative range of Oil and Grease Resistant (OGR) barrier coatings. These advanced solutions offer sustainable alternatives to traditional polyethylene coatings, addressing growing environmental concerns while maintaining superior performance.

Globally, various governments have implemented phasing out traditional polyethylene coatings focusing on sustainable packaging solutions. Cosmo Specialty Chemicals is moving in this direction by launching two distinct grade OGR coatings - OGR 145B and OGR 145S - designed to meet diverse packaging requirements across industries. These water-based formulations are a sought-after solution for the packaging industry in its efforts toward green manufacturing.

The OGR 145B, a non-heat sealable barrier coating, offers excellent oil and grease resistance for food packaging applications. Its unique formulation provides superior water and oil resistance properties, versatile coating application compatibility, anti-blocking properties, zero VOC emissions and is FDA compliance for direct food contact.

Complementing this, the OGR 145S variant introduces heat-sealing capabilities, specifically engineered for paper cup manufacturing. This coating delivers enhanced heat-seal properties for paper-to-paper bonding, excellent resistance against water, moisture, oil, and grease, flexible application options including gravure, flexo, and air knife coating and food-grade compliance for safety.

Both products undergo rigorous testing through KIT and Cobb Index measurements, ensuring optimal performance in grease resistance and water absorbency. These scientifically validated parameters guarantee consistent quality and reliable barrier protection across various applications.

Cosmo First (Formerly Cosmo Films) is a leading global brand, offering value added BOPP and CPP films for packaging, labelling, lamination and industrial applications.
