Cham Paper Group Holding AG: Cham Paper Group wins the Zug Innovation
Prize with Barnamic(R)
14.11.2012 / 18:15
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The Cham Paper Group has won the Zug Innovation Prize 2012. The CHF 20,000
prize was awarded to the company today by the Mayor of Zug, Matthias
Michel, to mark this year's Zug Innovation and Technology Day. The Jury
selected the Cham Paper Group to receive the prize for the successful
development of its ground-breaking speciality paper Barnamic(R).
Barnamic(R) is a product range of innovative speciality papers, which can
be used on their own as packaging solutions for food products. Barnamic(R)
provides the protection required for packaged food, with barrier functions
directly integrated into the paper, and can therefore replace complicated
composites made out of various materials (such as plastic and aluminium).
Over the past few years, the Cham Paper Group has invested around 20
million francs in the innovative curtain coating technology, which now
enables it to utilise a production technique that is currently unique to
the paper industry. The development of innovative speciality paper and its
coating is something held very dear at the Group's traditional place of
manufacture in Cham. Products such as Barnamic(R) form the basis for the
establishment of the Cham Paper Group's innovation and technology centre.
The prize money awarded to the company will be used to purchase laboratory
test equipment that the Group requires to optimise and refine the
Barnamic(R) product range.
