Cosmo Films, a speciality manufacturer of BOPP Films, unveiled its range of barrier films at the recently concluded 4th Speciality Flexible Packaging Conference held in Mumbai, India.
Mr Pankaj Poddar, CEO of the company also made a presentation on "Enhanced Shelf Life with Speciality Packaging Films" at the conference where he introduced these films.
His presentation was part of the session on "Innovations in Flexible Packaging". As one speaker after the other spoke about the importance of reducing food waste by devising technologies to enhance shelf life of the pack, Mr Poddar's presentation struck a chord with the packed gathering wanting to learn and collaborate on new innovations in this space.
Apart from introducing the company's comprehensive portfolio of transparent, metallized and anti-fog barrier films, Mr Poddar's presentation also addressed the need for laminate structure rationalization and how these films can facilitate the transition.
Cosmo's range of barrier films includes:
Transparent Films: Aroma Barrier Films for coffee/tea and spices packaging; High Oxygen Barrier Films for biscuits packaging and High Oxygen & Aroma Barrier Films for ready to eat pack applications etc.
Metallized Films: High Moisture Barrier Films for sandwich lamination in shampoo sachets, dry milk powder & powdered drinks sachets/packs where loss of moisture is a concern; High Moisture Barrier with high seal strength films for bulk packs needing moisture barrier and Ultra High Barrier films for foods with fatty contents such as dry fruits, chips, cream biscuits packs etc.
The company also makes anti-fog films which extend the shelf life of fresh cut vegetables/fruits and meat packs that need to be refrigerated in sub-zero temperatures by additional 4-7 days while also lending hot & cold anti-fog properties.
"We are focussed on addressing the unmet needs of the industry and our latest range of barrier films address the most important of them all - enhanced shelf life and laminate structure rationalization" said Mr Pankaj Poddar in his presentation.
