Nova has introduced 3 new resins for food packaging that can be used on faster packing production lines and can form seals quicker that other competing products.
Dylark FG 2500 product is a styrenic copolmer designed for microwavable frozen foods. The plastic wrapping will remain rigid under high temperatures to prevent the distortion of microwave containers and also has cold-temperature toughness for freezer protection, reducing the danger of leakage or spillage when hot food is removed from the microwave.
Dylark FG plastics can be manufactured as tinted, clear or foamed containers, and offers processors several processing advantages, such as faster cycle times, enhanced sealability, excellent printability and higher material yields. Dylark FG resins can be processed on existing polystyrene or polyethylene terephthalate (PET) equipment.
Nova's new Zylar EX 720 is made of acrylic copolymer, giving it clarity, shatter-resistance and low-temperature toughness, and is targeted at the ready-to-eat convenience market. It can be used for fresh fruit and produce containers, salad bowls and lids, cold beverage containers, deli trays and frozen desserts.The clarity of Zylar EX 720 enables consumers to see the quality of the food they purchase, while its toughness protects food in the freezer or refrigerator. Zylar EX can be use on fast production lines and has reduced part weight. The material can be processed on existing styrenics equipment.
Surpass IFs932-R, made of polyethylene, is designed for lids and closures and enables better seals and improved flexibility in package design, keeping products such as ice cream and coffee fresh longer.
