ExxonMobil and Supply Chain Partners Make Recyclable Laminate for Food Packaging
To address the growing demand for recyclable packaging options, and in collaboration with supply chain partners, ExxonMobil has successfully helped develop a recyclable MDO-PE//PE laminate, suitable for a variety of foods and liquids.
The high-barrier, recyclable MDO-PE//PE laminate is engineered to provide excellent barrier properties against oxygen and moisture, ensuring optimal product freshness and protection.
The new solution not only meets the functional requirements for a wide range of food packaging applications, from dry goods to liquids, but also offers outstanding stiffness and clarity, making it a viable alternative to traditional materials such as PET and BOPP. Additionally, the solution addresses the challenge of maintaining barrier properties while ensuring ease of recyclability, often a limiting factor in conventional packaging materials.
The laminate leverages ExxonMobil polyethylene resin, Hosokawa Alpine film line, Henkel barrier coating, Nordmeccanica Group vacuum and coating machinery, and Univel printed film.
