CareSilver-PVNP

The versatile nature of our packaging films and our position as a supplier makes it a unique choice for both industrial or FDA applications as it is free of toxins such as TSE, Sulfur, Phthalates, and BPA. It is specifically designed to maintain the fresh texture of FDA Food Items like dried goods, snacks & chips, pet food (cats, birds, and all kinds of dog breeds), and its low thermal permeability rate, as well as the UV resistance, makes it an ideal choice as a pouch for bird seeds, fertilizers, detergents and many more products.

CareClear-PNP

This material has a higher than average moisture and strength, with good oxygen and gas barrier. As this is a clear product it has limited light barrier potential but does have good heat resistance. Enhanced heat resistance could be obtained with CareClear-PNC is required by the use application.   

CareFoil-XAP

Overview

This film is a multi-layer laminated film that combines strong and durable KPET with high barrier aluminum foil material designed for high barrier food and industrial applications. CareFoil-XAP adds PVDC coated PET to the base Carefoil PET/foil/PE structure. This FDA approved film does not stretch due to the orientation of layers during the laminating process. This film is often used when a die cut window is added to a pouch to offset the loss of barrier from adding a window into the Aluminum foil. High barrier application such as freeze dried foods, industrial powders and light sensitive contents.

Note: The performance of any film will be influenced by a number of factors and testing must always be performed to ensure the film meets the use.

This film is a multi-layer laminated BIAX film that is a strong high barrier aluminum nylon combination built for tough food and industrial applications. High barrier applications such as freeze-dried foods, MRE and similar pouches.

CareSilver-XVP

Great for Food and industrial uses, the film. The outermost layer is PVDC coated PET laminated to a metalized PET producing a lamination structure with enhanced barrier potential. This material is a good choice when the pouch design requires advanced printing techniques such as intricate designs that cannot be diecut into a aluminum foil based film. 

CareKraft-KAP

Overview

This FDA approved film is used extensively in food industry where good MVTR and OTR is required and easy entry into pouch is necessary. The brown natural Kraft exterior makes the structure rigid, but it tears easily in both directions. The foil provides excellent barrier to extend shelf life and protect the taste profile. The polyethylene sealant layer is extruded brown to mask the color of the foil. This unique design element makes the PF500 BRN a good fit for customers that do not want to see foil in their packaging but need the protection that it exhibits. 

It can be converted in many ways: 2-seal pouch, 3-seal pouch, side gusset, stand up pouch and tubing. Features include: recloseable zipper, tear notch, round hang hole, and sombrero hang hole. The PF500 BRN can also be surface printed and is available to web widths of 48”. 

Note: The performance of any film will be influenced by a number of factors and testing must always be performed to ensure the film meets the use.

CareVac-NP

This film is a coextruded nylon/Poly vacuum film designed for standard food and industrial chamber vacuum applications. Best for conversion into 2-seal and 3-seal pouches.  

CareVac NPB

CareVac-NPB has a high clarity, high temperature, and extra strength through the incorporation of nylon sets this film up as an excellent choice for heavy duty chamber vacuum applications.

CareClear-PEASY

Overview

This film is designed to provide very good moisture and oxygen barrier potential in a transparent film. The ALOX coating enhances the barrier of the PET film. 

This film prints well both digitally and Rotogravure, with high clarity. ALOX is an alternative coating treatment to EVOH or PVDC.

The ALOX coating is designed to not set off a food process metal detector. This film can also be subjected to irradiation. 

Note: The performance of any film will be influenced by a number of factors and testing must always be performed to ensure the film meets the use.

CareClear-PC PET/CPP

CareClear-PC provides some enhancement to heat potential with the use of Cast PP but also yields a very clear bag when used in thin film thicknesses.

CareClear-PNP PET/NYLON/PE

CareClear-PNP is a enhanced version of CareClear-PP which includes the addition of Nylon to increase certain barrier characteristics and strength for liquid and powder applications. 

CareClear-XP KPET/PE

PVDC coated PET provided extra barrier for applications which need enhanced WVTR and OTR, with the greatest increase being for the OTR barrier. 

CareFoil-MAP

Overview

This FDA compliant film has a matte appearance after printing, and combines a printed Matte OPP layer with encapsulated aluminum foil and a heat sealable PE food safe liner. Aluminum foil provides exceptional barrier while the MOPP outermost layer provides a quality matte appearance and finish. 

MOPP replaces the PET layer of our standard CareFoil Lamination for matte printed bags. 

Note: The performance of any film will be influenced by a number of factors and testing must always be performed to ensure the film meets the use.

CareSilver-MVP

This film is a multi-layer laminated film that is a strong and clear material designed for tough food and industrial applications including frozen environments. The material consists of a lamination of Oriented Polypropylene (OPP), Vapor Metalized Polyethylene Terephthalate (VMPET) and proprietary Polyethylene sealant layer designed for freezer applications.

CareFoil-PAP

CareFoil-PAP is our high barrier film structure which incorporates encapsulated aluminum foil as the barrier layer of this film. The exterior high grade PET serves as a great base for printed bags. The interior PE sealant layer is non-reactive and is heat sealable. CareFoil-PAP is great for FDA applications where long shelf life, or susceptibility to spoilage is a concern.
