Borstar Enhanced PE – The cost effective alternative for High Perfromance Flexible Packaging, grades FB2230 and FB2310 have unparalled balance of Performance, Productivity and Versatility.
Performance
- Unique property balance in a multitude of applications
- Thinner films through unique combination of stiffness and mechanical properties
- Stronger Films through superior dart drop impact strength
- Toughness at low temperature –ideal for frozen food packaging
- Seal-ability – higher hot tack force and broader sealing window than C4 LLDPE and LD and its coplymers.
- Cost reduction in coextrusion – broader sealing window enhances properties of expensive heat seal polymers – offering cost reduction.
- Resistance to aggressive environments (ESCR)
- Low taste and odour
- Pack integrity
- Design Freedom –unique surface and printing properties
- Matt and Smooth surface onto which print registration is excellent
- Easy to open – non blocking smooth surface makes for easy open pack design
- Easier and cheaper printing – less energy needed to achieve corona treatment levels
- Lower cost of colouration due to inherent surface properties
- Good optics in coextruded structures
Productivity
- Easy, consistent processing and converting, less scrap
- Easily processed on most blown film lines
- Less tendency to bubble breaks
- Easily co-extruded with other polyethylene materials
- Comparable outputs to LDPE
- High speed packaging conversion
- Bubble stability, longer runs, higher outputs
- High Stable extrusion output over a range of film thickness
- No melt fracture - even at narrow die gaps
Versatility
- Saving in material usage
- Genuine down-gauging potential
- Ideal for blending
- Simplified material handling
- Drawdown ability means one grade replaces several conventional PE grades.
- Savings in stock management and logistics
