Properties & Applications:

 

  • Barrier properties*
  • Puncture resistance is similar to products currently available on the market
  • Resistant to oils and greases
  • Inherent anti-static properties
  • EU and FDA food contact approved
  • Variety of transparent, coated or non-coated and grey or white metallised films available
  • Can be used in a selection of dry food applications, such as crisps, cereal bars, nuts, chocolate, etc.

*Multilayers offer a variety of oxygen barrier and moisture barrier, with metallised structures offering OTR ~ 0.7 cc/m²day (conditions 23°C 50% RH - ASTM F 1927), WVTR ~ 0.5 – 1.5 g/m²day (conditions 38°C 90% RH - ASTM E 96) and excellent barrier properties to UV/visible light transmission

 

Sustainability:


 

  • GM-free plant-based content of resultant materials ranges between 50-70%

  • The films are compliant to European industrial composting standards, meaning that they disintegrate by 90% within 12 weeks and biodegrade by 90% to water, CO2 and biomass within 180 days

  • Materials have been tested and proven to be non-toxic to both soil and plant life


 

 

Processing:


 

  • Pouches can be easily printed using both conventional and digital print processes, allowing manufacturers to create highly decorated branding

  • Excellent heat-sealable properties
