COLINES recyclable pouch with ExxonMobil Signature Polymers
COLINES creates an innovative pouch, designed for recyclability, with cast calender MDO PE + 7-layer blown barrier film using ExxonMobil Signature Polymers.
COLINES creates recyclable pouch with ExxonMobil Signature Polymers.
The solution involves using cast calender MDO technology to produce a high quality low gel substrate film, combined with a tough 7-layer blown barrier sealant film.
The substrate film is produced using COLINES’ unique cast calender MDO technology, exploring the right selection of ExxonMobil Signature Polymers, including Exceed HD 6107 and Exceed Stiff+ m 2025.ML, to reach the required stretch ratio in a controlled manner to deliver the desired stiffness and clarity.
The sealant film can be made using a 7- or 9-layer blown barrier film extrusion, with Exceed Stiff+ m 0926.ML for pouch drop performance, Exxtra Seal POP 2008.MK for broad sealing window, Exceed m 2018.MA for good adhesion to substrate film, ExxonMobil LD 03322.BW1 for enhanced processing stability, and Exceed HD 6107 for boosted overall stiffness, offering a wide sealing temperature window and excellent final pouch performance.
The innovative pouch designed for recyclability demonstrated excellent performance in terms of final pouch properties such as excellent survival rate of 100% dropping from typical shelf heights of 2m.
This case study demonstrates the successful collaboration and technological advancements of ExxonMobil Signature Polymers, COLINES, Sümer Plastik, Mitsubishi Chemical Group, and Industrie Polieco – MPB SpA.
