Stretch film is thin but strong

摘要

Katan-Ex microlayer stretch film for pallet wrapping won a Gold Award for Apeldoorn Flexible Packaging, a firm based in the Netherlands. This 27-layer film lets beverage companies, for example, use 30% less material per pallet because the film provides increased pallet stability at elevated temperatures. According to Paul Kommerkamp, sales and marketing manager at AFP, Katan-Ex is a cast film made on a Black Clawson line. Also essential is a Cloeren feed block that takes molten material from five extruders and divides it into 27 layers.
