Co-extrusion technology
A major focus of VACUFOL is continuous investment in the latest and most progressive production technology, such as "water cooled co-extrusion facilities." At the main site in Bad Grönenbach im Allgäu, there are several blown film co-extrusion lines for the production of flexible packaging films, VACUshrink (shrink films) and VACUflex (PP/PA-EVOH-PA/PE thermoforming films).
The production of these flexible packaging films is structured in such a manner that sustainability is always considered.
9-layer EVOH shrink technology
- EVOH barrier based shrink films
- Excellent transparency and gloss
- High shrink ability of over 45% /VACUshrink FM45)
- Overlaping seal
- Extremely high puncture resistance (PA layers)
7-layer “waterquench” technology
- High-barrier PP/PA-EVOH-PA/PE thermoforming films
- Excellent transparency and high gloss
- High mechanical stability
- Material reduction
- Optimized thermoforming properties
