Presented by Michele Payant, Amcor There is a significant trend in the marketplace moving towards paper packaging solutions and the reduction of petroleum-based products. There are many challenges with moving to paper-based packaging materials such as cost, toughness, meeting high packaging line speeds, recyclability and product shelf-life demands. Moving from
Extrusion coating vs. adhesive lamination: A comparison study Paid Members Public
Both adhesive lamination and extrusion coating can be used to provide a structure for flexible packaging. The question of which method to use often is based on what asset is available, not what system will be best for a given structure. This article will look at the reasons an adhesive
How proper treatment for flexible laminates helps achieve high bond strength, zero optical defects Paid Members Public
This article discusses the main criteria for high-quality lamination used in today’s flexible packaging sector and the role that surface treatment plays with sophisticated substrates. Lamination requires two essentials: bond strength and zero visual defects. Fundamental to both is the need to understand the part played by surface tension
