Toray Plastics (America) Announces BOPP Film

Published: June 26, 2014

NORTH KINGSTOWN, RI | Toray Plastics (America) introduces Torayfan CBS2 film, described as an environmentally conscious, clear, high-oxygen- and moisture-barrier BOPP film designed for use as the inside sealant web for the packaging of bakery items, crisp salty snacks, cookies, crackers, granola, fruit and nut mixes, and confections, as well as dry pet food and treats and non-food items. 

Company says consumer packaged goods companies and converters can now create value-added transparent PVdC-free laminations that provide an excellent oxygen and moisture barrier. Versatile, heat-sealable CBS2 BOPP film is also said to offer end-users an alternative to coated OPP and PET films and is the more economical choice when compared with aluminum oxide (AlOx)-coated films.

It is available in 70 and 80 gauge, presenting a downgauged alternative to thicker OPP films. CBS2 film can also be used as an unsupported web for flexographic and rotogravure surface printing.

The film’s barrier properties are achieved by means of company’s resin technology and a proprietary non-PVdC barrier layer. The non-barrier side of the film is designed for heat sealability. Company says CBS2 film also provides superior oil and puncture resistance and excellent stiffness. The film runs on HFFS and VFFS equipment.
