Lecta renews Ineris certification for its entire range of phenol-free Termax papers


Lecta reaffirms its commitment to innovation and sustainability by renewing the official “BPA Free – No Phenols Added” certification, guaranteeing the absence of Bisphenol A (BPA) and other phenolic compounds identified in the Ineris certification scheme, for its entire range of phenol-free Termax thermal papers.

Ineris (the French National Institute for Industrial Environment and Risk) has once again certified that Lecta’s thermal products meet the most stringent market standards, further establishing the company as a benchmark in the sector.

The Ineris “BPA Free – No Phenols Added” certification is based on a rigorous verification process that includes the evaluation of technical documentation, an audit of the manufacturing process, and an analysis of the thermal paper. This certification examines key aspects such as manufacturing, quality control, traceability, and methods for monitoring the composition of thermal paper.

The audit findings have confirmed that Lecta meets all the requirements of the approval scheme, ensuring that its certified Termax products are entirely free of the fifteen phenolic compounds identified by Ineris.

Termax is Lecta’s range of papers specifically designed for direct thermal printing. They can be used for printing variable information and barcodes in a wide variety of applications, including receipts, labels, and tickets, across sectors such as retail, transportation, food, entertainment, healthcare or gaming.

In addition to the Ineris certification, the entire Termax range is manufactured in compliance with environmental management standards ISO 14001 and EMAS, energy efficiency standard ISO 50001, quality standard ISO 9001, and occupational health and safety standard ISO 45001. It is also available upon request with PEFC or FSC® C011032 Chain of Custody forest certifications.

With this renewal, Lecta strengthens its leadership in thermal paper manufacturing, offering high-quality, safe, and more sustainable products to meet the needs of an ever-evolving market.
