The Apex SF series are renewable films that pass the ASTM D 6400 standard which certifies it as biodegradable and compostable. Additionally, it is Food & Drug Administration compliant for food contact.

The films are extruded one or multiple layers depending on the application and properties required. The structure seals to itself, thereby making it ideal for vertical form-fill-seal applications.

Further, it is easier to process and has physical properties more in line with traditional flexible packaging films when compared to those made solely with PLA.
The Apex 3000 SF film line is naturally opaque. However, colorants can be added for marketing differentiation and they also can be printed via rotogravure or flexography.

Ideal applications include products desiring both environmental benefits and performance. Examples include cereal bag liners, sealants for organic snack packaging, Application where a PE sealant can be replaced in a multilayer structure to improve the overall sustainability of the final package.

Apex SF films can also be used for secondary packaging especially where biodegradable packing materials are used.
