Water-based coating

Pushing boundaries in sustainable coating and drying technologies

At COMAS, we believe that real progress should never come at the expense of the environment. That belief has driven the development of sustainable coating and drying solutions, designed to meet the evolving needs of the packaging industry.

Our range of solutions includes water-based coating technologies, high-control drying systems and intelligent web-handling. The result is paper packaging that offers excellent barrier performance, superior print quality, and full recyclability.

With a plug-and-play design, our modular coating systems integrate seamlessly into existing lines, allowing you boost capacity, eliminate fossil-based plastics, and keep operations running at peak efficiency. 
The benefits are clear: reduced material waste, lower energy consumption, and no compromise on speed or quality.

Coating technologies for high performance, eco friendly barriers

  • Gravure Coating: ideal for low-viscosity, water-based dispersions, gravure ensures precise deposition with minimal waste and optimized coating thickness
  • Curtain Coating: enables ultra-smooth, continuous multi-layer coverage at high speeds, essential for achieving low WVTR and OTR targets while reducing resource consumption. 

Drying expertise for optimized energy efficiency

Water-based formulations require careful evaporation management to avoid defects and optimize energy use. Our multi-zone drying machines independently control air speed, temperature, and humidity; adapt thermal profiles to sensitive substrates like paper or biopolymers; and maximize energy recovery through heat recirculation systems.

Discover the future of sustainable packaging

We invite you to explore the next generation of water-based coating technologies. Whether you're ready for a deep technical consultation or just unlocking possibilities, our team is here to help you build solutions that deliver on both performance and sustainability.
