Linpac launches new flexible packaging films

In line with its new "Fresh Thinking" innovation strategy, multi-material food packaging company Linpac has launched two new PP films for fresh meat, poultry and fish packaging.

Linpac says both films - LINtop PP HB Lock Seal and LINtop PP HB Peelable - are formulated to seal on a variety of PP trays, to run smoothly in machines and to seal through contamination to ensure a safe and secure pack.

The lock-seal film option is available in two gauges - 35米 and 42米 - with the 35米 being one of the lowest gauges on the market, resulting in cost-savings and a low carbon footprint, while LINtop PP HB Lock Seal outperforms other films' anti-fog qualities and has excellent transparency for good on-shelf presentation, says Linpac.

Both products are manufactured at the company's Pontivy flexible films factory in Franc.

Linpac adds that the LINtop PP HB Peelable film offers safe and easy peelability, coming away from the tray in one piece. It is in line with the best market offerings for anti-fog efficiency and oxygen-barrier properties, and outperforms most films for transparency qualities.

"LINtop films are easy to handle and complement a wide range of PP trays - driving efficiency on the factory floor and providing a long shelf-life for food products. This helps retailers to reduce waste, as well as keeping food fresh and looking attractive for longer - which will ultimately encourage consumers to buy," emphasizes Jo Stephenson, Linpac Packaging's Vice President Marketing & Innovation.
