PRODUCTS & SERVICES

Ecoplast Ltd. , is a reputed and prime supplier in India of Multilayer co-extruded plastic films for flexible packaging and other  speciality  applications.

Multilayer  films  are a combination of two or more thermoplastics (polyethylenes) co-extruded to form one homogenous film with distinct individual layers. Multilayer films provide a range of properties, which cannot be obtained from monolayer films. This film forms a very important and integral part (or seal layer) of a laminate, made with polyester film, biaxially oriented Polypropylene
film or aluminium foil; a process, which is carried out by
Ecoplast's customers.

In general the company's films are used with or without lamination in a wide range of product groups such as: beverages; edible oil; dairy products; snack foods; processed foods; cosmetics; toiletries; pharmaceuticals; bakery products; and food commodities like salt, wheat flour, rice, sugar etc. Industrial applications include: adhesive films for bonding materials; release films; films for manufacture of jelly-filled telephone cables.

The technology in making a multilayer film lies, in developing recipe or film structure by the selection and processing of various polymers depending primarily upon:
The compatibility of the film with the product packed;
The desired shelf-life;
The packaging system and it's level of sophistication;
The seal configuration of the pack;
The required mechanical properties of the film;
The budgeted cost of the pack.

Ecoplast is considered a leader in developing multilayer film structures in India, with several "firsts" to it's credit. The Company, with an eye on the future, maintains it's leadership by innovation in film structures through it's technical service capability and modern "state-of-the-art" production facilities.

Ecoplast has played a vital role in the development of the flexible packaging industry in India, contributed to the growth and profitability of it's customers and to the success in the market of a wide range of consumer products.Top
