ProAmpac Showcases High-Performance Recyclable film at AFFI-CON

CINCINNATI (Feb. 15, 2022) – ProAmpac, a leader in flexible packaging and material science,  opens AFFI-CON at Booth 412 with an emphasis on recyclable packaging innovation, shining a spotlight on their patent pending high-performance laminate ProActive Recyclable R-2000F.

Engineered to maintain machine efficiencies on high-speed form/fill/seal lines, ProActive Recyclable R-2000F is a polyethylene-based laminated structure designed for excellent performance in cold temperature conditions. Its enhanced stiffness and scuff-resistance, compared to standard surface printed films, offers outstanding display characteristics in the freezer case, boosting brand differentiation while supporting sustainable messaging. 

“Maintaining filling machine efficiency and superior shelf appearance was at the forefront of the design process when we developed R-2000F. The film has been proven to run ‘at-rate’ on existing equipment,” stated Nathan Klettlinger, director of global marketing for ProAmpac. “Our ProActive Recyclable R-2000F has superior heat resistance, a robust sealant technology, and excellent dimpling resistance, which makes it an ideal replacement for gusseted frozen food packaging made of non-recyclable PET/PE or OPP/PE laminations.”

ProActive Recyclable R-2000F can be supplied with a pre-applied recyclable Inno-Lok® zipper. Ideal for running on high-speed vertical or horizontal form/fill/seal equipment, R-2000F is also available in pre-made pouch format. For additional differentiation in the freezer case, gloss or Signature Surfaces Registered Matte finish options are available.

“We invite the frozen-food community to visit us and learn more about how ProAmpac’s high performance films can help brands achieve their sustainability goals,” said Klettlinger.
