BRIEF DESCRIPTION ON PROCESS USED
High Barrier AlOx (F-PSX) Film: AlOx coating is the application of a thin and highly transparent coating of aluminium oxide on packaging films that gives the materials extremely high moisture and gas barrier properties that rival those of aluminium foils and metalized Films. It is the only truly high-barrier flexible packaging material available that is transparent and allows the packaged product to be clearly visible. AlOx coating is cutting edge technology and only a very select handful of film manufacturers are equipped with AlOx coating capabilities and in-house formulated top protective coat barrier coating done after Alox.
The superior high barrier application and striking packaging make the film the go to option for packaging items like dried meat snacks, confectionaries, and other microwavable rood items. Other than this, it is also suitable for hot fill, sterilization, pasteurization, report applications (125 degrees C/45 min), and other industrial packaging.
