YUTOECO, a Chinese provider of eco-friendly packaging solutions, has introduced FluoZero, a per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)-free greaseproof technology specifically created for use in moulded fibre food packaging.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This new product is claimed to tackle critical challenges in delivering sustainable and high-performing greaseproof solutions for the sector.<\/p>\n

The company asserts that its FluoZero technology is entirely free from PFAS and is fully plant-based, being crafted from agricultural byproducts, thus offering a renewable alternative.<\/p>\n

It also noted that FluoZero-treated products can withstand temperatures ranging from -34\u00b0C to 220\u00b0C, ensuring protection for up to eight hours.<\/p>\n

This makes it ideal for applications such as frozen food packaging, airline meal boxes, and high-temperature containers for fried foods.<\/p>\n

In addition to the catering industry, FluoZero also offers a more sustainable and reliable solution for products like hair dye mixing trays in industrial packaging sector.<\/p>\n

YUTOECO stated that FluoZero products are thinner than their traditional moulded fibre alternatives, offering better bending stiffness and bursting strength.<\/p>\n

The FluoZero technology has earned a United States Department of Agriculture biobased certification, compostability certifications from the Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI) and DIN CERTO, and complies with US Food and Drug Administration food contact regulations.<\/p>\n

In a news release, YUTOECO said: \u201cYUTOECO\u2019s launch of FluoZero is in line with its longstanding commitment to sustainability. Since the establishment of the YUTOECO brand, the company has been dedicated to eco-friendly packaging solutions, shifting from process innovation to material innovation.<\/p>\n

\u201cFluoZero represents a significant step forward in this journey, offering a packaging solution that is not only high-performing but also safe and environmentally responsible, driving the transition towards a greener future.\u201d<\/p>\n
