SYROS DUO BROWN: NOW ALSO AVAILABLE IN A WATER-RESISTANT HARD-SIZED VERSION WITH BETTER COBB PERFORMANCE

18-11-2024

At RDM Paprinsa we continue to advance in our offer of 100% recycled cardboard, and Syros Duo Brown is hitting the market with new features.

Syros Duo Brown is a moisture-resistant cardboard, now also available in a hard-sized version with better COBB performance.
On rainy days, humidity tests the durability of materials. With Syros Duo Brown, your cardboard envelope will withstand the elements, protecting its contents and ensuring that your shipments remain safe and in optimal condition, regardless of the weather.
Syros Duo Brown offers good performance in humid and cold environments. From now on, it is available on request with a COBB 180s value of less than 60 seconds (face and reverse), making it the ideal option for applications where moisture resistance is essential.

 

The COBB is a technical parameter that measures the amount of water absorbed by a specific surface of paper or cardboard over a given time.

 

Syros Duo Brown has continued its development to comply with the necessary food contact regulations, with a special focus on the Italian market. In addition to complying with European and German directives, the Italian Ministerial Decree 21/73, art. 27 bis, is also included. With this, it is suitable for applications intended for dry and non-greasy products such as pasta, cereals, legumes, dehydrated products, and fresh products that will be washed, peeled, or shelled before consumption. Its stable quality and guarantees make it ideal for plastic replacement applications such as trays and baskets for fruits and vegetables.

 

The recycled cardboard Syros Duo Brown has been developed and manufactured at RdM Paprinsa, 130 kilometres from Barcelona, under the quality standards ISO 9001 and the occupational health and safety standards ISO 45001. This product is available on request with FSC® chain of custody certification -C081817.

 

RDM Group offers various types of moisture-resistant recycled WLC cardboard in its factories in Europe: For a first level of resistance, RDM Santa Giustina, RDM Paprinsa, RDM Arnsberg, and RDM Barcelona offer water-resistant recycled cartons (WR); for a higher level of resistance, RDM Fiskeby manufactures recycled cardboard with superior moisture resistance (hard-sized, HS), to which RDM Paprinsa now adds the Syros Duo Brown. For maximum protection against moisture and water, RDM Group offers polyethylene-coated recycled cardboard.
