kp will be debuting a new high performing floatable shrink label film, Pentalabel ClearFloat, designed to increase efficiency in the recycling process; the first visual form-fill seal package prototype from the new marketing alliance between Klöckner Pentaplast and Berry Plastics Group, Inc.; and will update on kp’s new packaging innovation facility, the kp i.center, home of the expanded BlisterPro XCEL suite of design services.
New Pentalabel ClearFloat Floatable Shrink Label Films
The Pentalabel shrink film line has expanded to include a new high performing floatable label film, Pentalabel ClearFloat. This family of films is designed for customers who are interested in meeting the standards set by the recycling community, while providing the clarity, processability and durability required of today’s consumer labels. Pentalabel ClearFloat films meet the Design for Recycling Guidelines as set by the Association of Postconsumer Plastics Recyclers, which allows for the highest degree of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) container recycling. These new films are engineered to offer high performing shrink percentages for optimal design freedom and to impact the visual presentation of the product due to the film’s superior clarity.
Klöckner Pentaplast and Berry Plastics Marketing Alliance Debuts First Visual Form-fill Seal Package
The companies are presenting the alliance’s first visual form-fill seal package at PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2015, at both the Klöckner Pentaplast booth #S-6625 and Berry Plastics Group, Inc. booth #S-5919. The prototype has applications with a variety of food products that require extended shelf-life and high visibility, including packaged meats, cheeses and fresh pastas. The package is also ideal for a wide range of nonfood products, for example, personal care products, that require tamper evidence and easy opening.
