Mallard Creek Polymers is committed to environmental stewardship by offering water-based coatings as a compelling alternative to traditional plastic and PFAS-based materials in food packaging. With growing concerns about the environmental impact of single-use plastics and the potential health risks associated with PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), MCP is taking a proactive step to address these issues. Water-based coatings present an innovative and eco-friendly solution that aligns with the company's dedication to sustainability and corporate responsibility.

Tykote is a family of styrene-butadiene, styrene-acrylic and all-acrylic polymer products that may be used as bases for compounded functional coatings. Barrier coatings formulated with Tykote® products are used in a variety of packaging applications to block the passage of substances, including moisture vapor, water, oils, and grease, under a variety of conditions and temperatures. The purpose of a functional coating is to provide protection, a longer shelf-life, and better product and package integrity.
