Speciality films for packaging applications
The company manufactures different kinds of barrier films used in different food packaging, these include:
➔ High moisture barrier films
➔ Aroma barrier films
➔ High oxygen barrier films
➔ Anti-fog films
➔ Films for cold seal application
➔ Films with low SIT
➔ Films with stable slip
Speciality films for labeling
➔ Labels face stock films
➔ Direct thermal printable (DTP) films
➔ Synthetic paper
Speciality films for lamination
➔ Luxotique scuff-free matte
➔ Luxotique silky matte
➔ Luxotique velvet
➔ Luxotique silver
➔ Luxotique digital lamination films
➔ Luxotique insulation films
➔ Luxotique encapsulation films
High moisture barrier films
These are metallised films used for sandwich lamination in shampoo
sachets, dry milk powder, powdered
drinks sachets/packs and snack foods, where loss of moisture is a concern.
Aroma barrier films
These are transparent barrier films typically used for coffee/tea, spices, chewing gum and perfume boxes overwrapping.
High oxygen barrier films
These films have both excellent oxygen and gas barrier properties and are used for packaging of cream biscuits, chocolates, chips and snacks.
Anti-fog films
These transparent films extend the shelf life of fresh-cut vegetables/fruits and meat that need to be refrigerated in sub-zero temperatures by additional 4 to 7 days.
Films for cold seal application
These are used for packs where heat sealing is bound to interfere with the food content inside the pack. This
includes chocolates, ice creams, etc.
The film has its surface modified for the cold seal glue (HMPSA/solution acrylic PSA) application.
Films with low SIT
These are used for printed pouches
used in food packs and cigarette overwraps requiring sealing at low temperatures and high speed machines. The film’s sealing temperature can go down up to 75
degrees and therefore, it has broader heat seal range.
Films with stable slip
These are again used for food packaging done on VFFS/HFFS machines, where consistent COF is (Kinetic: 0.25 - 0.35) is a pre-requisite.
Labels face stock films
Label face stock films available in transparent, white and metalised varieties go into making pressure-sensitive labels largely for home and personal care categories. The films are compatible with UV, water-based and solvent-based ink systems and display spectacular print performance across wide variety of printing processes. The films also have high stiffness for conversion and dispensing operations.
Direct thermal printable (DTP) films
These films are used for applications such as information (airport baggage tags), track and trace labeling, and POS weight and price labeling. These are top-coated films which support variable printing. The films with excellent paper like finish have a proprietary coating, which enables dark printing or image/impression formation upon coming in contact with the print head of the thermal printer.
Synthetic paper
The film is used for replacing paper in applications where non-tear ability and durability/weather resistance is desired. This includes applications like menu cards, visiting cards, garment tags, children books, maps, calendars, etc. The film with excellent opacity and whiteness supports all kinds of printing with a coated version.
Luxotique scuff-free matte
Unlike traditional matte film, this film provides excellent scuff resistance to scuff marks, which can develop during production, transportation and handling of the pack. The matte surface is also ideal for post-laminating procedures such as UV spot coating, hot-foil stamping, embossing, etc.
