Film offers superior oxygen and moisture barrier functionality

7 February 2014


New from Toray Plastics (America) is Torayfan PC5, a versatile ultra-high oxygen and moisture barrier metallised BOPP film that can be used in tri-laminations, as a foil replacement, and as an overwrap lamination or wrapper.

Torayfan PC5 high barrier metallised BOPP is said to offer a durable, cost-effective replacement for foil in a typical paper/PE/foil/PE packaging structure. In addition, says Toray Plastics, it is ideally suited for use as the inner barrier web of a tri-lamination in gas-flushed stand-up or flat pouches. It can also be used as a coldseal layer and as part of a lamination for high-quality confectionery wrappers and bakery overwraps.

"New foods are introduced to the consumer daily, and end-users and converters want more than the packaging status quo," says product manager Kerri Boyens. "PC5 offers clear competitive advantages. It has superior oxygen and moisture barrier functionality, is versatile and readily available, and is an economical solution, particularly when compared with foil."
