We’ve got your backsheet covered.
As human beings we all need to feel protected. This need for security takes different forms throughout our lives. When it comes to hygiene absorbent products, backsheet films are the foundation of that protection. They’re what everything else is built on and around.
Our ethylene-based resins can help you develop high-performance barrier films that are thin yet durable, tough yet discreet. So people don’t have to worry about their personal hygiene protection. They enable tailored stiffness/toughness balance along with other key attributes such as:
Breathable blown films
- Improved MD/CD property balance
- Opportunities for downgauging
Breathable cast films
- Exceptional breathability
- Excellent shrinkage control for high quality pre-registered printing
Non-breathable blown films
- Improved hydrohead performance
- Enhanced stiffness/toughness balance
Non-breathable cast films
- Improved neck-in during cast process
- Enhanced stiffness/toughness balance
