Benefits of BPA-Free Thermal Paper for Retail
About MilaMima
Founded in 2022, MilaMima is a proudly Canadian supplier of high-quality thermal paper rolls, POS supplies, and copy paper designed for businesses across Canada. We focus on safe, consistent, and reliable printing solutions — supporting retailers, restaurants, and offices with BPA-free thermal rolls that meet the highest environmental and health standards.
Why BPA-Free Matters
Thermal paper is coated with special chemicals that react to heat, allowing printers to produce receipts and labels without ink or toner. For decades, one of these chemicals was Bisphenol A (BPA), a compound used to enhance the paper’s heat sensitivity. However, research has linked BPA exposure to potential health concerns, especially through frequent handling of printed receipts.
As awareness and regulations have increased, many retailers have switched to BPA-free thermal paper — and for good reason. Choosing BPA-free paper not only protects your staff and customers but also reflects your business’s commitment to safety and sustainability.
Key Benefits for Retail Businesses
- Health & Safety: BPA-free thermal paper eliminates exposure to harmful chemicals that can transfer from printed receipts to skin. This is especially important for cashiers and staff who handle hundreds of receipts each day.
- Eco-Friendly Choice: BPA-free paper is safer to recycle and dispose of, supporting your business’s environmental goals and compliance with Canadian sustainability regulations.
- Consistent Print Quality: Modern BPA-free coatings, like those used in MilaMima thermal rolls, provide the same sharp, clear printing performance as traditional papers — with improved stability and resistance to fading.
- Customer Trust & Brand Image: Demonstrating that your business uses BPA-free supplies reinforces your brand’s commitment to safety and responsibility, enhancing public perception and customer confidence.
- Compliance with Industry Standards: Many regions and large retailers now require or recommend BPA-free paper for POS systems. Choosing it keeps your business ahead of evolving regulations and standards.
