Thanks to the innovative embossing pattern, the gram weight of polyolefin seal films can be reduced by up to 30%, while remaining as thick as standard packaging. Thus, the carbon footprint of a given packaging specification can also be reduced.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"hh-block block-paragraph block-paragraph--id-6a1a7d6e8e02a\"data-mb=\"small\">In addition, the technology reduces the problems associated with migrating slip additives commonly used in the PE and PP film industry. Thus, fewer additives can be used and the coefficient of friction on the packaging line remains constant regardless of environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity. This also results in higher production speeds. The innovative packaging solution is particularly suitable for use in flow packs for detergents, dry pet food, coffee, nuts, savory foods, as well as in stand-up pouches for liquids..<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"hh-block block-paragraph block-paragraph--id-6a1a7d6e8e2a6\"data-mb=\"small\">Initially, the focus will be on polyethylene sealants in thicknesses greater than 60 grams per square meter, where weight reduction has the greatest environmental impact.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"hh-block block-row\"data-mb=\"regular\">\n    <div class=\"block-row__row row block-row__row--preset-1\/2|1\/2 block-row__row--align-stretch\">\n                \n\n<div class=\"hh-block block-column col col--1 col--lg-1\/2\">\n    \n\n    <div class=\"hh-block block-image\"\n         data-mt=\"none\"         data-mb=\"small\"         data-horizontal-align=\"centered\"\n         data-vertical-align=\"centered\"\n         data-mobile-align=\"centered\">\n\n         \n        <figure class=\"block-image__inner\" style=\"max-width: 360px\">\n\n            \n            \n            <div class=\"block-image__image-container\">\n\n            \n                <picture class=\"block-image__picture\" draggable=\"false\">\n  <source media=\"(min-width: 414px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.plasthill.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/SanderKool265-vierkant-360x360.jpg\" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" \/>\n  <source media=\"(min-width: 0px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.plasthill.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/SanderKool265-vierkant-360x360.jpg 1x, https:\/\/www.plasthill.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/SanderKool265-vierkant-720x720.jpg 2x\" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" \/>\n  <img class=\"block-image__image\" draggable=\"false\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.plasthill.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/SanderKool265-vierkant-360x360.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" \/>\n<\/picture>\n                                    <div\n                        class=\"block-image__holder block-image__holder--desktop\"\n                        style=\"aspect-ratio: 360\/360; max-width: 360px\">\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                                    <div\n                        class=\"block-image__holder block-image__holder--mobile\"\n                        style=\"aspect-ratio: 360\/360; max-width: 360px\">\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                                \n            <\/div>\n\n                        \n\n            \n            \n            \n            \n        <\/figure>\n\n        \n    <\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"hh-block block-column col col--1 col--lg-1\/2\">\n    \n<p class=\"hh-block block-paragraph block-paragraph--id-6a1a7d6e92ca7\"data-mb=\"small\">Sander Kool, Managing Director at Plasthill Technical Films: &#8220;Our proposition is &#8216;The sustainable innovator&#8217; and producing these new films is completely in line with our Rethink Plastics strategy.
