Better resins, better product protection

For products with complex, three-dimensional geometries, our biaxial film resins help create packaging that can withstand handling abuse and provide high puncture resistance and exceptional clarity. In addition, our biaxial shrink resins are known for consistency to maximize productivity on double bubble lines.

We collaborate with our customers to develop better biaxial shrink applications, from product development through commercialization. Our expertise in product design, coupled with our technical service, helps ensure our customers get the best solutions for uniform equi-biaxial shrinkage and increased protection of single-wrapped objects – all while improving yield.
