UPM Raflatac has launched its new Raflex MDO films, which balance the best performance properties of PP and PE for maximum functionality and shelf appeal. According to the company, creasing and darting that distort graphics are a thing of the past because this machine direction oriented (MDO) polyolefin film offers excellent conformability and squeezability on contoured containers.
The product also preserves the stiffness of a standard gauge clear polypropylene for consistent application and converting.
Raflex MDO films are suitable for thicker-width bottles that present twice the amount of curve (when compared to flat panel wall-to-wall squeezable containers) and those that require a full squeeze at the bottom of the bottle. Available in both clear (removed clear-on-clear) and white with RP74 adhesive and both paper and film liners, Raflex MDO films can be utilized for a variety of end uses, including food, beverage and personal care.
"Our new Raflex MDO films offer exceptional on-press performance with enhanced conformability," says Bruce Ruppert, manager, product development, Americas, UPM Raflatac. "Squeeze after squeeze, these clear and white materials are a perfect fit for keeping your branding intact throughout the product life cycle."
