Mondi has created a recyclable polypropylene film that is suitable for the thermoforming of flexible films for modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and vacuum packaging. This provides a longer shelf life for packed foodstuffs.
The co-extruded material includes a top and bottom web, with an internal barrier layer that comprises less than 5% of the entire structure, meaning it qualifies as a mono-material construction and is fully recyclable in existing waste streams.
The film reduces the package’s carbon footprint by 23% compared to existing conventional structures, the company claims.
