Industry innovator Toray Plastics (America), Inc. (www.torayfilms.com), North America’s only manufacturer of precision-performance, value-added polypropylene and polyester packaging films, announces a quantum leap in barrier performance and structural design with the introduction of a “next generation” line of Torayfan® OPP co-extruded metallized and clear barrier films. New Torayfan PC5 and Torayfan PWX5 are unique patent-pending ultra-high-barrier metallized polypropylene films that offer ten times the oxygen barrier of metallized films from previous generations. Technologically advanced Torayfan PC5 and Torayfan PWX5 also offer exceptional moisture barrier. New Torayfan CBS-2, made with proprietary technology, is a high-barrier clear film that offers superior oxygen and moisture barrier. Now major consumer-product-goods manufacturers and converters can have extraordinary barrier protection with a variety of packaging applications, including snack food, baked goods, confections, and pet food, as well as medical, agricultural, and chemical products.
“These new Torayfan metallized and clear OPP films were developed specifically to help end users and converters grow business by offering unparalleled barrier capabilities and creative opportunities in package design,” says Mike Brandmeier, vice president of sales and marketing. “A new unique high-performance barrier technology, which we use on a modified OPP base sheet, combined with other innovative Toray film technology, creates proprietary films that offer guaranteed barrier performance and help deliver consistently fresh products,” he adds.
