Cosmo Films develops “TeploR” Heat Resistant Film to facilitate a circular economy
New Delhi, 16th December, 2020 – Cosmo Films Ltd., a global leader in
specialty films has successfully developed a new transparent printable biaxially
oriented polypropylene (BOPP) film called “TeploR” with a higher heat
resistance.
The FMCG brands and the entire packaging industry are aiming to recycle waste
generated from flexible packaging. BOPP films have an excellent recyclability
however; most of the flexible packaging is made with different plastic
materials making it difficult to recycle.
TeploR has been engineered to work as a printing layer allowing mono material
structures in multi-layer laminates for various packaging applications in both
food and non-food segments. The film has excellent slip properties, good
machinability and has a great performance on high-speed VFFS and HFFS
machines. It has good thermal stability (no shrinkage) upto 185˚C; way more
when compared to conventional BOPP films (145-155˚C).TeploR will prove to be
a good replacement in packaging machines where the sealing temperatures are
higher.
Commenting on the same, Mr.Pankaj Poddar, CEO, Cosmo Films, said:“The
TeploR film has an excellent printable surface at high converting speeds, will
not shrink or form wrinkles and can be recycled easily. We have also gone
ahead and patented the product in the company’s name. ”
