Case study: Innovative form-fill-seal polyethylene heavy duty sack with self-venting feature for fine powder industry

Scientex partnered with ExxonMobil Signature Polymers, Windmöller & Hölscher (W&H), and Haver & Boecker oHG (H&B) to develop a polyethylene (PE)-based form-fill-seal (FFS) HDS solution for moisture sensitive and fine powder products. This innovative packaging offered excellent mechanical performance and downgauging opportunity while being designed for recyclability*. *Designed with features intended to support recyclability. Actual recyclability depends on factors such as local collection, sortation, and recycling infrastructure, as well as the condition and configuration of the film after use. However, access to facilities that accept and process plastic film is limited and not widely available.
