NOVA Chemicals Introduces Innovative Packaging Film Resin
This resin offers unmatched high-moisture-barrier performance up to 50 percent improvement over existing resins.
16/06/08 NOVA Chemicals has introduced SURPASS HPs167-AB resin for use in barrier-film structures. This resin offers unmatched high-moisture-barrier performance up to 50 percent improvement over existing resins and the ability for packaging designers to down gauge without sacrificing performance while helping them to meet their sustainability objectives.
"This new high-density, ultra-high-barrier resin offers packaging designers the best of both worlds – they can reduce the film gauge to meet their customers' performance and sustainability objectives, or they can maintain film gauge and drastically increase barrier and stiffness performance. It really is a win-win design proposition," said Carrie Richards, SURPASS Marketing Director.
SURPASS HPs167-AB resin is perfect for any multi-layer film packaging application where moisture-barrier performance and/or stiffness are important including cereal and snack liners, meats, cheeses, ready-to-eat meals, pet foods, potting soil and other lawn and garden applications, soaps, printer cartridges and fumigation films.
