EVOH/PA/RCPP Constructions Engineered for Superior Protection & Circular Economy Goals

Achieving high performance no longer requires sacrificing sustainability. Introducing our High-Performance Recyclable Barrier Films—a breakthrough material science solution that closes the loop on the traditional performance-versus-planet dilemma. By innovating with EVOH, PA, and RCPP (Recyclable Polypropylene) constructions, we deliver films that provide superior barrier and protective performance while being designed for recyclability, directly supporting your circular economy and ESG objectives.

This film family is architecturally designed from the ground up to balance end-of-life considerations with uncompromised in-use performance.

• Performance Role: Provides the essential ultra-high oxygen barrier necessary to protect sensitive contents from oxidation, staleness, and flavor loss.

• Circular Design: While EVOH itself is a barrier, its use in thin, discrete layers within a predominantly polypropylene (PP) structure (RCPP) allows the entire film construction to be compatible with emerging polypropylene recycling streams. Advanced recycling technologies can process these multi-material films, recovering the polymer base.

• Performance Role: Delivers critical puncture, tear, and abrasion resistance, ensuring product integrity through demanding supply chains.

• Circular Design: The inclusion of PA enhances durability, which can allow for source reduction (using less material overall). Furthermore, its role in preventing package failure itself supports sustainability by reducing product waste. In advanced recycling, its separation is managed within the process flow.

• Performance Role: As the sealant and bulk matrix layer, it provides excellent seal integrity, moisture resistance, and clarity.

• Circular Design: This is the key to recyclability. RCPP is designed for recyclability within polypropylene recovery systems. By building the film architecture around a PP-base, we create a monomaterial-leaning structure that is recognized and processed more effectively in recycling facilities aiming to handle flexible PP packaging.

• Design for Recyclability: Creates flexible packaging that is increasingly compatible with existing and advanced recycling infrastructure.

• Resource Efficiency: The high performance protects the product, reducing food and material waste—a significant environmental benefit.

• ESG Alignment: Meets consumer demand for sustainable packaging and corporate goals for reduced plastic footprint and increased recycled content use.

• Value Chain Support: Provides brand owners with a viable, high-performance material to meet ambitious packaging sustainability commitments.

• Barrier Performance: Achieves the necessary OTR (Oxygen Transmission Rate) and MVTR (Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate) for sensitive products like coffee, snacks, and dry foods.

• Physical Durability: Maintains the toughness required for machining, shipping, and handling.

• Recyclability Pathway: Moves your packaging from a linear "take-make-dispose" model toward a circular one.

• Material Construction: EVOH / PA / RCPP (Typical 3 to 5-layer co-extrusion or lamination).

• Key Properties: Engineered for high barrier (O₂, aroma) and high strength, within a PP-recyclable framework.

• Recyclability Profile: Designed for compatibility with polypropylene recycling streams. Specific credentials vary by region and recycling infrastructure.

• Certifications: Can be assessed under schemes like APR (Association of Plastic Recyclers) Design Guide or RecyClass for critical guidance.

• Premium Coffee & Snack Brands with sustainability pledges.

• Nutraceutical & Wellness Companies targeting eco-conscious consumers.

• Pet Food Brands seeking durable, recyclable packaging.

• Any brand requiring high-performance protection while pursuing ambitious sustainability targets.

This is the next generation of responsible packaging. You can now specify a high-barrier, high-strength film without compromising on your commitment to a circular economy.
