Plexar PX3990 exhibits outstanding processability and adhesion after machine direction orientation (MDO) and further promotes the sustainability of MDO film by allowing downgauging compared to non-orientated films.

While excelling in shrink film, Plexar PX3990 can also be a viable solution for many demanding applications in the oxygen barrier co-extrusion film market.

This product is currently available globally in a variety of packaging types.
