Printed Laminates and Barrier Materials

Flexible packaging is enjoying strong growth, not least thanks to the numerous design options and low weight and volume. We offer a broad range of printed laminates and barrier materials, such as duplex-, triplex or multilayer films, whereby the material combination is customised to the specific requirements.

Our portfolio is backed by in-depth technical know-how and leading-edge research and production systems. We have vast experience in supplying highly efficient reel materials for all kinds of Form-Fill and Seal (FFS) applications.

Benefits

Tailor-made material compositions, eg. special barrier properties
High-quality roto or flexo printing in up to 10 colours
Special solutions, such as cold seal application and vacuum packaging
Barrier materials have excellent oxygen, nitrogen and aroma barrier as well as outstanding mechanical strength, e.g. extension

Specifications

Available in all material combinations (e.g. with SiOx, EVOH or OPA)
Depending on the requirements, solvent or solvent-free adhesives are used for laminates with up to five layers
Special solutions such as cold seal application, double-sided printing and laminates are available
Sterilisation and vacuum packaging are part of our standard product portfolio

Applications

Our printed laminates and barrier material can be used for all horizontal and vertical FFS applications as well as for flow wrapping or lidding. In addition, they can be further processed into customised converted packaging solutions.

Printed laminates and barrier material are mainly used within the food (frozen food and ice cream, dehydrated and dried food, fresh and chilled food, dairy products, confectionery, fresh fruit and vegetables, chips and snacks), pet food and care, hygiene and toiletries (towels and nappies), medical and pharmaceutical, and non-food (e.g. household cleaning products) industries.
