Wigton's Innovia Films has launched a new product called Propafilm REF.

This new material has been designed with high-speed in mind and can be sealed at a lower heat than other similar products.

The seals, when pulled still hot, resist opening on a larger range of temperatures.

These two features make the product well-suited horizontal wrapping processew.

Amaia Cowan, market development manager at Innovia, said: “Whilst speed is important to our customers, efficiencies are just as critical.

Minimising rejects and maximising outputs remain an important objective for many of our clients. Propafilm™ REF can contribute to these targets."

He added: "Strong seals are achieved every time.”

This film will work easily with packaging machines and also provides excellent clarity for visual impact and good moisture barrier for product protection.

It is suited to a variety of applications and markets such as biscuits and bakery, confectionery, dried foods, tea and cosmetics.
