Enable™ mPE resin for stretch hand wrap packaging film
Enable™ metallocene polyethylene (mPE) resin meets the needs of the cast stretch hand wrap films market with improved performance and the ability to reduce film gauge.
A single, unique resin delivering easier processing and higher alpha olefin (HAO) performance benefits, Enable mPE offers converters:
- Reduced film thickness of up to 20% for raw material savings, reduced film inventory, lower transportation costs and more-sustainable flexible film solutions
- Higher toughness to eliminate multiple wraps, resulting in more secure loads during transit and the opportunity to wrap more-demanding loads
- Improved stiffness/stretch resistance to prevent re-stretch on the pallet, securing heavy loads and assuring a high film wrap force. This leads to more efficient packaging operations, lower risk of damage during transit, optimal wrapping with more certainty and reduced operator fatigue
- Improved optical properties in five-layer films, leading to enhanced packaging appearance and clearer bar codes
To improve cling performance in hand, machine and power pre-stretch wrap film, consider Vistamaxx™ propylene-based elastomers.
Enable mPE resin also delivers a variety of benefits in both three-layer and five-layer formulations compared with conventional films, including:
- Improved stiffness
- Improved tear performance
- Lower haze
- Enhanced puncture resistance
Whatever the starting point, Enable mPE resin is a value-added solution for customers.
