Barrier layers
We vary structures, such as thickness and barrier types, including a range of polyamide and EVOH resins to meet the shelf life and cost requirements of our customers.
Sealant layers
We offer a range of sealant types, including:
- Standard sealant layers
- High sealing properties for high contaminated seal areas and less pack leakers
- Quick sealing properties for faster machine speeds and higher output
- Secondary sealing properties for secondary skin pack
- Cooking types: boilable and retortable
- Easy peel properties
- UV barrier properties
Superior formability
Superior formability gives consistent pack corner thickness, maintaining strength and barrier properties.
