CKP Performance-orientedProducts & Services

Product Features End Uses

• High performance multiwall sheet with good stiffness and runnability.

• Agricultural products such as flour, sugar, seed, feed for open mouth sacks (pinch and sewn sacks)

• Air filled dunnage bags for cargo protection in transport

• High Tensile Energy Absorption (TEA) extensible sheet, good printability.

• Cement and other construction materials

• Typically used in pasted valve sacks

• Superior High Tensile Energy Absorption (TEA), high porosity extensible sheet.

• Pasted valve sacks without perforation, faster filling with reduced dust during filling. A cost effective packaging solution.

• Extremely high Tensile Energy Absorption (TEA), high porosity fully extensible sheet.

• Intended for use without perforation to maintain strength, faster filling and reduced dust level during filling operation.

• High porosity, fully extensible high strength and very good runnability.

• Ideal for single ply bags with no perforations. Reduces cost for the converters in production, storage, packaging and transportation while maintaining the performance.
