Flexible Packaging

PVDC is a synthetic polymer with exceptional barrier properties. It has transformed industries such as food packaging and medical products.

Researchers enhanced PVA biofilms with Putranjiva Roxburghii seed shells (PRSS), improving biodegradability and properties for eco-friendly packaging.

Researchers in Finland developed a new smart label for intelligent packaging and conducted a life cycle assessment (LCA) to evaluate its environmental impacts.

The University of California, Berkeley, developed a new catalytic chemical process that has the potential to revolutionize plastic recycling by converting waste polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) into valuable monomers.

Flexible packaging enhances our daily lives by protecting the food and goods we buy. However, as new trends emerge, sustainability remains crucial in film-layer packaging.

The TotalRecycle MRF in Pennsylvania led a groundbreaking project that effectively sorted and repurposed flexible plastic packaging (FPP) into marketable materials.

Mango Materials transforms waste methane into biodegradable PHA, providing a sustainable alternative to plastics and creating significant opportunities for innovation across multiple sectors.

The study revealed that only the biodegradable-compostable packaging fully decomposed. Oxo-biodegradables showed minimal degradation.

A recent report by the University of Auckland, commissioned by the Ministry for the Environment, sheds light on the presence and impact of harmful additives in compostable products.

Packaging shape plays a critical role in perceived volume, influencing consumer behavior and purchase decisions. Designers can create packaging that appear larger and more appealing.

The German company WACKER has adopted the mass balance approach, which enables the simultaneous processing of fossil-based and renewable raw materials to produce silicone rubber.

AFLatex Technologies revolutionizes natural rubber latex preservation with eco-friendly methods, reducing reliance on harmful chemicals.
