High Packaging Barrier films

EVOH barrier packaging film, PA films, PS films high barrier films for lamination

High barrier film like EVOH packaging film is a multilayer film made with barrier material to decrease gas or moisture permeability.

 

High barrier film

is the most frequently used for food packaging and pharmaceutical products. Due to multi-layer structure including polymers as EVOH or polyamide ) which are barrier materials, it can prevent the transmission of oxygen, water vapour, moisture and/or aroma through the packaging film and protect the packaged goods from quality deterioration.

 

Gas barrier films used with Modified Atmosphere Package allow to increase the shelf life of foods products and therefore help to decrease wastage.

EVOH packaging film

provides very good gas barrier properties including oxygen barrier, nitrogen barrier and carbon dioxide barrier. EVOH film is also strong, flexible and transparent.

EVOH film, due to its high barrier properties,

helps to keep gas mixtures inside the package ( modified atmosphere packaging or MAP).

Polyamide films ( PA )

have also a good protective effect against oxygen and carbon dioxid, a high thermostability and a very good thermoformability. However, the barrier effect is lower than EVOH.

Combined with PE, PA films provides a good vapour barrier.

With pharmaceutical products, some barrier films have a sterilisation effect, and keep out contamination with germs.

 

The range of high barrier films we offer have PE, PP and/or PS base combined with EVOH or PA. All these barrier films can be use with different process of lamination like glue, heat lamination, calendering, IML, lining, wrapping or thermoforming.

 

These high barrier films can also be made peelable.

Hereafter are some examples of high barrier films:

Polyamide, PA films

Multilayer EVOH films (PE EVOH PS) :

applied to all PS supports, either rigid or expanded, the EVOH films have excellent gas barrier properties ( especially barrier to oxygen) and appropriate sealing capacities.

PE EVOH PS - 25 to 150 microns - 300 to 1900 mm

 

Multi-layers EVOH film (PE EVOH PE). As EVOH, it is a high barrier film to gas with the advantages of PE. Largely use for lamination

PE EVOH PE - 25 to 150 microns - 300 to 1900 mm

 

Multi-layers PA films

with good gas and aroma barrier, appropriate sealing capacities and a good mechanical resistance.

PE PA PE - 25 to 150 microns - 300 to 1850 mm

 

Multi-layers EVOH films (PP EVOH PP)

with an excellent gas barrier, good resistance to high temperature, and sterilisation effect.

PP EVOH PP - 30 to 120 microns - 300 to 1500 mm

 

Coextruded PE films with enhanced mechanical and water vapour barrier properties.

 

These high barrier films, like EVOH packaging film or polyamide film are suitable for lamination and are food contact approved. These barrier films are adapted or new solutions are developped by the Research Department to meet the needs of the customer. Visit barrier film
