Material Structure Glossary

RIGID CAST CO-EXTRUDED:

• Thickness range 200 to 1800 microns, widths up to 60"
• All webs can be constructed with or without EVOH. Sealant layer can be designed for weld or peel seals.
• APET/PE/EVOH/PE
• METALLIZED APET WITH GOLD TINTING
• POLYPROPYLENE 
• EXPANDED POLYPROPYLENE
• HIGH CLARITY POLYPROPYLENE
• POLYSTYRENE
• EXPANDED POLYSTYRENE
• HIGH DENSITY POLYETHYLENE
  

FLEXIBLE 7 LAYER CAST CO-EXTRUDED:

• Thickness range 65 to 400 microns, widths up to 82"
• All structures can be constructed, with or without EVOH, with boilable tie layers and U.V. light inhibitors for using as a multipurpose for high oxygen barrier, retail and cook-in applications.
• All flexible forming films 7 layer cast co-extrusions have an outside layer of PP
• PP/PA/EVOH/PA/PE

Depending on the application, the sealants are as follows.

METALLOCENE:

• Metallocene is known for the ability to seal through heavily contaminated seals, puncture resistance and ultra-high clarity.
• With very quick hot tack, metallocene is a perfect sealant for high line speeds in wet, heavily contaminated sealing applications. It is also noted for extremely low odor transmission.
  

LLDPE:

• For use in dry, frozen, reheating and high temperature cook-in the bag above 200 F.
• The quick chill cast process produces a high clarity LLDPE sealant to allow for good product presentation.
  

CONVENTIONAL LAMINATES with and without barrier:

• PET/PE
• OPP/PE/EVOH/PE
• METALLIZED PET
• CPP (cast polypropylene)

Each substrate can be customized to the desired application, utilizing various sealants and variable degrees of oxygen barriers.

PRINTING:

• Up to 10 colors flexo printed with photopolymer plates
• Outstanding process printing capabilities
