Innovia Films recognises that today’s competitive market place demands packaging films that perform on a variety of machines, at the highest possible speeds. As overall production costs are scrutinized, achieving high efficiencies is becoming increasingly vital. We have a range of industry proven films that meet these demands.

The most recent addition to the collection is Propafilm™ REF a coextruded film that provides excellent clarity and machinability and good moisture barrier for product protection. It has a wide sealing range, when compared to standard coextruded films. Tests have shown it has over 30°C lower heat seal threshold (the minimum temperature required to achieve acceptable seal strength of 200g/25mm) compared to basic films.

This year at Fachpack we will be launching some exciting new BOPP films with optimum barrier performance that will help to extend the shelf life of a range of products, thereby reducing food waste. Also we will be talking about other films under development that will allow pack simplification, by removing/replacing layers within lamination materials that restrict recycling. In addition, we will be promoting our high performance fast films and ‘easy-open’ peelable films.

From our leading BOPP label facestock film range we will be featuring our latest squeezable films that offer environmental benefits and thick high clarity film for wet wipes applications.
