Toray Plastics (America) has launched Toryfan MWX6, a new metallised white cavitated biaxially-oriented polypropylene film for gas-flushed consumer packaging applications.
The new film is designed with a proprietary 'ultra-barrier' layer on one side, to give superior moisture and oxygen barrier functionality, while the other side features a hermetic, heatsealable layer. Converters can use it as a monoweb or a lamination, and it will run on both horizontal and vertical form fill seal machines.
Available in 100 and 110 gauges, MWX6 film is said to be ideal for packaging salty crisp snacks, baked goods, confectionery items, pet food, and refrigerated and frozen foods, as well as agricultural and chemical packaging.
