Why High Barrier Cast PP Pouch?

The high barrier cast PP pouch serves as our enhanced demonstrator for sustainable packaging solutions, designed for mechanical recycling. Both base films are mainly consisting of polypropylene and made on our FILMEX II cast film machine. The use of a minimized content of EVOH ensures that properties for long shelf life packaging applications are met, as well as compatibility for mechanical recycling is given. A supplementary inorganic coating of the base film improves the barrier properties. For bonding the films a tailored modular performance adhesive is used without adding noteworthy amounts of extraneous material. A major challenge is the incorporation and distribution of the EVOH within the polyolefinic structure. This was mastered by means of inhouse development for process know how and thanks to a machine design that provides melt with excellent quality. The achieved contact transparency reflects the very good result.
