RKW has expanded its Ecore portfolio to include mono-axially stretched PE films. RKW Horizon includes transparent films, print carriers and oxygen barriers as well as white-opaque variants and is designed to meet consumer demand for sustainable packaging solutions.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

If MDO-PE films (mono-axially oriented PE films) are laminated with a functional PE sealing film, the result is packaging made from a single raw material: polyethylene. In contrast to many conventional pouch packs, these are unmixed and therefore fully recyclable<\/strong>.<\/p>

\"As a manufacturer of high-quality plastic films in particular, we are aware of our responsibility. We have therefore pooled our development resources and developed a product portfolio that can be used to optimise food protection. We develop materials that meet the requirements for a lower carbon footprint, better recyclability and increased use of recycled plastics.\"<\/p>

RKW Horizon films meet the high requirements of flexible packaging manufacturers for Tear resistance, transparency, gloss, printability and good processability<\/strong>. The films are also characterised by good machinability on conventional packaging systems.<\/p>

The MDO films can be used for a wide variety of packaging forms such as Stand-up pouches, gusseted pouches, pillow pouches and sachets or also as lidding films<\/strong> can be used. The main areas of application are the packaging of confectionery and snacks, coffee and tea as well as frozen foods, but MDO films can also be used in the non-food sector for packaging pet food, personal care or cleaning agents and detergents.<\/p>
