For high temperature applications, Wipak has developed a plastic composite which offers ideal product protection.
New: WALOX is a transparent alternative to compo-sites based on polyester, laminated with aluminium oxide (AlOx) or silicon oxide (SiOx).
This new film can be used for hot fill, it is sterilizable up to a temperature of 130° Celsius, and it is suitable for microwaves. WALOX is the solution for demanding market segments such as baby food, pet food, and ready meals.
Special: Standard composites consist of three or four layers (incl. aluminium composites), with an inside barrier layer that needs to be protected. Walox however offers ideal product protection even when using two-layer composite structures. Compared to other, commonly used transparent and high-temperature resistant high-barrier films, WALOX stands out for its excellent link resistance.
WALOX composites allow for flexible application; they can be used to replace tins and glass packages, as lidding film or stand-up pouch, and they can be processed in combination with paper.
