Innovia create new “easy open” packaging range
Innovia Films has expanded its range of easy-to-open food packaging film range to include heavy duty, high barrier and snap wrap options.
The portfolio of peelable Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) films with the 52 and 60 microns Propafilm RCP.
The packaging makes it easier for consumers of all ages and abilities to open them easily to access whatever food or other product is inside.
Its acrylic coating ensures a broad sealing range, which enables a wide packaging operating window and good machinability in all standard formats. Its moisture and aroma barrier properties are suitable for preserving food products such as dried and chocolate based products.
The seal strength is consistent and the film can be used on existing packaging machines.
Amaia Cown, Innovia Films’ product manager, says: “Brand owners are waking up to the fact that easy-open is increasingly becoming a major purchase consideration for consumers, especially those with reduced dexterity. We have listened to consumers who often complain about the difficulty of getting into conventional packaging.
“Our easy-to-open packaging range makes their life that little bit easier. Rest assured, these films continue to protect the products they wrap while providing an enhanced product experience.”
