Multi-layer Film Extrusion
Multi-layer film extrusion is the center of our development work and new technologies for Saran. We recognize current trends in food packaging call for structures that are clear, "retort-ready," and that deliver outstanding barrier performance, preserving the qualities of the products that are packaged while extending shelf life. Saran™ Resins and Films remain the premier polymer solution for meeting these needs and more. We have been working with leading equipment manufacturers to develop new dies and new Saran Resins that enable converters to manufacture Saran-containing films via the blown film converting process. This give converters the opportunity to provide the ultimate barrier film at lower cost by making film in-house vs. purchasing Saran Films and laminating them to other structures and substrates.
