Packaging selection for sensitive contents is a significant decision; that's why we've created this whitepaper: Packaging of Long Shelf-life Coconut Water in PET Bottles for Greater Consumer Appeal. Packaging of Long Shelf-life Coconut Water in PET Bottles for Greater Consumer Appeal

It is the same polymer resin utilized in the plastic bottle industry.

Both legislation and industry goals have created an increased demand for recycled material across the plastics industry, but especially within the packaging market. Cesa Nox A4R is formulated to help: • Brand owners who need to maximize their PCR usage up to 100% to achieve sustainability and recyclability targets • Recyclers involved with flake or pellets dealing with multiple processing defects • Convertors of bottles, film, and sheet who need to maintain high-quality levels of PCR Performance enhancement antioxidants such as Cesa Nox A4R are valuable for many stakeholders within the circular economy, and indeed anyone seeking to achieve high-quality levels in their recyclate while operating with ever-increasing quantities of PCR.

Lactra SX enables light blocking in single PET layer bottles, and offers the added advantage of design freedom. Traditionally, UHT liquid dairy products have been packaged in laminated paperboard cartons, pouches, or multilayer high density polyethylene (HDPE) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles. The simplicity of the monolayer injection process can also lead to reduced production cost and has the potential to offer lighter-weight bottles due to fewer restrictions in bottle wall thickness for single layer constructions.

Acqua Plose natural spring water is one of the purest waters in the world and bottled without any treatment or other human intervention. Even the slightest off-taste can compromise the refreshing experience of bottled still or mineral water. Sealing of reusable glass bottles with rim imperfections presents an even greater challenge compared to sealing of one-way, disposable bottles.

BIO-BASED SOLUTIONS Bio-polymers are already used with success in different plastic products, notably in packaging, but to be used in healthcare applications, they need to be risk-assessed. REDUCED MATERIAL USE Chemical Foaming Agents (CFA) Mevopur CFA products are the result of Avient’s combined experiences in the development of chemical foaming agents for automotive plastic components and of polymer solutions for healthcare applications. They also improve the visual appearance of plastic components by reducing sink marks.
