The line was developed to help brands provide Significant shelf differences, enhanced ease of handling and improved aesthetics.
Penn Color : Devaluation penneffexTMtechnology
PenneffexTM technology can provide two-color, thermochromic, and phosphorescent PET bottles for the beverage market. Through the development of the design in cooperation with HUSKY Injection Molding Systems, we have been able to introduce proprietary pigment compounds into multilayer structures.
Penn Color Marketing Manager Phil Riccardi said: 'The purpose of PenneffexTM is to break through the technical bottleneck, inspire packaging designers to come up with new ideas, combine color design and innovative technologies, and quickly iterate to shorten the time to market.'
Carolina Color : G3Solid particle technology patented
Carolina Color Corp. has announced that its production of color particles G3 technology patented cleared by the US Patent and Trademark Office awarded the company's chief operating officer Jeff Smink expressed:. 'G3 as a disruptive technology can provide a real competitive advantage for our customers This is why the technology was patented.
Key attributes of G3 technology include:
1, suitable for a variety of resin systems
2. Based on the fact that it does not affect the pigment dispersion, 20% or more pigment loading level can be achieved in polyethylene and polypropylene.
3, the HIPs, PET, nylon, styrene and acrylic acid crystals in the formulation recipe obtain 40% -45% of stained
4, to provide 50% or more of pearlescent pigments, almost twice the industry standard.
Aptar : UNO38mm One-piece sports bottle cap
Aptar : UNO38mm One-piece sports bottle cap
Named UNO 38mm, the all-new sport cap is a one-piece closure made of PP and offers a choice of translucent or opaque colors to fully meet the requirements and performance of the flip design. The cap is based on two 38 mm 3-lead and 2-lead thread for single-handed opening and closing.
This design stems from the following three factors:
1. Continuous growth in demand for aseptic processing, especially for juices and beverages with stable shelf life, drinking dairy products, ready-to-drink coffee and tea, preservative-free beverages and water.
2. Dynamic growth of single-cup portable beverage consumption.
3. In busy life, consumers' demand for portable drinks is growing.
UNO 38mm for H2O2 sterilization of juices and dairy products, suitable for the following aseptic equipment suppliers: Krones, Serac, KHS and GEA. UNO 38mm is also suitable for pulse light sterilization of Claranor Puls' Full Cap® for more than 60 days ESL and high acid aseptic wire.
SABIC : Develop a multimodality with superior sensory performance HDPE
SABIC has developed a multimodal HDPE with excellent sensory properties. It has good environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR) and good flowability, making it easy for bottle cap manufacturers to design very lightweight caps.
SABIC : Develop a multimodality with superior sensory performance HDPE
The SABIC® HDPE CCX027C grade has strong shear thinning, which means that even if it has a relatively low melt index MFI (0.8 g/10 min, 2.16 kg), its flow characteristics during injection molding and single mode Similar to HDPE, the melt index is even 3 times higher than that of HDPE in single mode.
SABIC is currently paying close attention to market trends related to sustainability issues. For example, environmental stress cracking resistance of plastic products and improvement of physical properties such as stiffness and impact strength can achieve more lightweight; reduce the temperature required for processing. Can help plastics companies save energy and reduce cycle time, even better sensory analysis will better meet the needs of the cap, to ensure that the cap does not affect the contents of the package, especially bottled water.
Hans Pierik, Head of SABIC Global Caps Business Unit, said, “The bottle cap market is constantly evolving and changing. We are responding quickly to current and future developments. This year we will introduce more innovative materials, including a new HDPE. Helps carbonated drinks (CDS) caps to reduce weight. '
Smart Cups : Smart 3DPrint Polymerization Microcapsule Technology Cup
In a biodegradable cup, the ingredients are 'printed' in the cup, where, afterwards, pure water is simply injected, even without stirring, and a zero-calorie, sugar-free energy drink is presented before the eyes of the people. This smart cup is made by Smart Cups The company’s co-founder and CEO, Chris Kanik, said that the company’s goal is to promote this smart 3D printing polymer microcapsule technology water bottle to various industries, so that more people benefit from this novel portable and environmentally friendly patented technology.
Using leading microencapsulation technology, the active substances and flavor substances are locked in, and then using the 3D printing technology, which has been hot in recent years, the microcapsule printing is integrated in the biodegradable cup wall substrate. When the liquid is injected, the active ingredients and flavor substances in the microcapsules are released freely and become a cup of ready-to-drink beverage.
