Multimodal PP from Borouge provides temperature resistance and balanced seal-peel properties to provide a venting feature for multilayer blown film intended for microwaveable food packaging.

Based on Borealis Borstar technology which allows application-specific tailoring of material properties, Borouge has supplied multimodal Borclear polypropylene (PP) and Steripeel PP to provide the performance layers in the M-Vent microwaveable pouch produced by TPN FlexPak, Thailand.

The M-Vent pouch has an innovative sealing feature that allows it to ‘breathe out’ while its contents cook in a microwave oven. The novel self-venting attribute provides for the safe and reliable release of steam from inside the pouch without requiring partial opening or puncturing before placing in the microwave. It, thereby, provides the consumer with convenience in cooking either fresh, frozen or shelf-stable foods.
