The extraordinary Qwarzo® technology: the sustainable barrier gets a Special Mention for Innovative Materials category at Avant-Garde 2024
Qwarzo® is a mineral-based, silica coating that enhances material performance, providing a sustainable, plastic-free barrier highly resistant to heat, cold, water, oil, vapor, and chemicals.
This technology not only preserves the recyclability and compostability of substrates like paper but also offers a new, eco-friendly identity for materials previously reliant on plastic.
Applications Across Materials
Paper: Increases resistance to water and grease, making it viable for uses once dominated by plastics, without compromising recyclability.
Textiles: Creates a protective barrier that repels water and oils, perfect for high-performance, eco-friendly applications.
Metals and Stone: Offers anti-rust and anti-corrosion protection for metals and enhances stone’s resistance to stains and scratches, ideal for construction and interior design.
These innovations underline Qwarzo®’s role in promoting sustainability through enhanced material performance and cleaner production practices. It aims to set a new standard in packaging, providing a viable alternative to fossil-derived materials and helping companies adopt a circular, sustainable business model.
Qwarzo® has been selected by the jury for the Innovative Materials category and will be exhibited in the Avant-Garde dedicated area at Packaging Première & PCD Milan 2024.
