Claimed to allow users to boost both their point-of-sale presence and their green credentials, Nov8 is a new downgauged shrink film that can be printed using solvent-free plate making technology.
Bpi.films expects it to be especially popular with brewers, soft drink manufacturers and others that regularly employ multi-pack formats, as it offer all the protection and performance of a conventional shrink film but from a thinner film thickness. Users can apply less film by weight to wrap a given pack, reducing packaging waste; and this reduced waste can be recycled, as Nov8, is 100% recyclable.
Meanwhile, the use of solvent-free plate making technology in the production of Nov8 eliminates ozone damaging VOCs from the process, further enhancing the film’s green credentials.
Bpi.films also promises ‘breathtaking’ optical properties, with a high gloss finish and the possibility of ‘photo quality’ printing in up to eight colours.
In addition, the thinner profile means it is possible to wind more film onto a standard reel. This helps to reduce delivery requirements and associated vehicle emissions, and enables more pallets to be wrapped with fewer stoppages for reel changes.
