About ScionScion is the Crown research institute that specialises in research, science and technology development for forestry, wood and wood-derived materials, and other bio-material sectors.
Scion’s purpose is to create economic value across the entire forestry value chain, and contribute to beneficial environmental and social outcomes for New Zealand.
001LW is a water-based dispersion coating that protects paper, corrugated boxes, cartons and other products from moisture ingress. When applied as a thin layer it creates a physical barrier which reduces the transmission of water vapour and moisture.
The coating has been designed for conventional coating technology but can be also applied by printing, which enables high performance at low application weights.
Performance of rod-coated samples at different application weights.
