Recyclable High Barrier Films

The right packaging choice; Recyclable High Barrier Films

Reaching to additive-free, natural food is crucial for the consumers. Under present day’s circumstances, the true way to present additive-free food at the market with long shelf life is to provide with the right packaging choice.

Food products such as meat, milk, fish and cheese can have long shelf life through packaging techniques like MAP, HFFS / VFFS form fill seal or thermoforming where OTR and WVTR barrier films are used.

Products with long shelf life help the producers in reaching their products to longer distances and export. On the other hand, products with longer shelf life lead to more efficient production and sales for food producers. Thus, consumers reach to fresh and additive-free food more easily.

In packaging sector, like all sectors around the world, new trends and requirements emerge as well.

The latest of these trends and one of the most important ones for environment is the recyclable packaging. Recyclable packaging includes; recyclable top films, VFFS – HFFS gas flush films, doypacks and bags. By means of recyclable packaging excessive plastic consumption leading to environmental pollution will decrease; efficient use of natural resources and sustainability of struggle against environmental pollution will be supported.

Benefits of recyclable packaging;

* Enables decreasing the thickness (down gauging), increases the yield in terms of square meters whereas less recyclable top film is used in kilograms,

* Enables use of recyclable raw material,

* Less plastic production and lesser environmental pollution in the end of recycling process.

Producing a film which is both recyclable and with barrier for OTR and WVTR requires extensive information, substantial R&D work and efficient use of technology.
