Optimize cost thanks to food contact approved Blowing Agents

Food Contact Approved Blowing Agents are used to Reduce Weight of Thermoformed Packaging

To be competitive in the packaging industry, manufacturers have to face several requirements:

 Compliancy with constraints in food security
 Waste management for the protection of the environment
 Cost

Cutting edge innovation has led to packaging with more and more improvements in terms of materials saving, processability and compliancies.

Chemical Blowing Agents are additives used in the manufacturing of foamed plastic. These additives function by blowing gas that is generated by thermal decomposition and form a foamed structure in the polymer matrix.

Reduce packaging cost using chemical Blowing Agent systems

Adeka Palmarole has developed a new generation of Blowing Agents specifically designed for the manufacture of food contact polystyrene, PET or PP foam containers. By using this technology, less material is required to produce a packaging of similar volume.

Manufacturers can reduce their overall cost by:

These ready to use endothermic systems generate regular and constant foam structures, at low loadings (1.5- 1.8%) and tolerate a wide processing window. Initial mechanical and physical properties of the plastic are preserved.

Adeka Palmarole's Blowing Agents can be used for thermoformed packaging based on PP, PS and PET in applications such as egg cartons, meat trays, fast food containers...

The benefits of these ready to use systems are summarized below:
