Cosmo Films will demonstrate its specialty barrier films at FachPack 2016 this week.

It will display its new metallised Broad Seal and High Hot Tack Barrier Films, which have a broad heat seal range.

They have been designed to run on high-speed machines and can be used for medium-sizes food packs.

Cosmo's High Moisture Barrier Films will also be on display.

These metallised films are used for sandwich lamination in shampoo sachets, dry milk powder, powdered drinks sachets/ packs and snack foods, where loss of moisture is a concern.

Aroma Barrier Films are transparent barrier films typically used for coffee/ tea, spices, chewing gum, and perfume box overwrapping.

High Oxygen Barrier Films have strong oxygen and gas barrier properties and are used for packaging of cream biscuits, chocolates, chips, and snacks.

The company will also be showcasing Cold Seal Release Films meant for packaging of ice creams, chocolates and confectionery in gloss, matte, and white varieties.

New packaging films such as universal lidding films and heat-sealable matte film will also be seen at FachPack.

Universal Lidding Films are mono-layered BOPP films which can take printing on one side and sealed with the other.

They are referred to as universal lidding films as they can be sealed with any of the thermoplastic containers such as PP, PVC, HDPE, HIPS and PET.

Available in white opaque cavitated and semi transparent varieties, they can be used as easy peelable lid on packed drinking water glasses, meal trays, butter trays, fresh fruit containers, and milk containers, to name a few.

Heat Sealable Matte Films are side heat sealable matte films with a low-seal initiation temperature, specially designed for lap seal.
