The new product is How2Recycle-qualified for in-store drop-off. The film is also Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-compliant for food contact.

ProAmpac research innovation and technology director Hesam Tabatabaei said: “When developing R-1000, we wanted to ensure that it maintained the speed of vertical and horizontal form fill sealing machines and ran much faster than typical mono-material films currently on the market.

“It has been engineered with high heat-resistance that resists ‘gum-up,’ burn-through and deformation during high-speed packaging.”

In April, ProAmpac launched a new line of coatings Signature Surfaces to enhance the tactile feel of consumer packaging.
