What is the so-called KIT class in the packaging sector?
Actually, the KIT class indicates the approximate permeability of paper.
12 different KIT classes were used about 10 years ago. Currently 9 different classes are famliar and used in the packaging sector.
The degree of permeability always depends on the final usage of the food packaging.
The decisive factor is,
- How long food is packed in the paper and
- How high the fat or moisture content of the packaged food is
ETIVERA’s cake box does not use a plastic barrier layer and achieves KIT class 9.
