BOREALIS REDUCES WASTE WITH NEW TRANSPARENT, THIN WALL PACKAGING SOLUTION
08 May 2006 - Borealis A/S

Borealis has launched a new solution for transparent, thin wall packaging which meets the demands for improved product visibility, lighter weight but stronger packaging, better stackability and integrated features for convenience and tamper-proof solutions.

The RJ470MO solution offers the well-established properties of polypropylene random copolymers, such as stiffness, impact performance and low density and a new route to greater productivity. The solution delivers clear benefits to retailers and consumers in packaging for dairy, confectionary and convenience food as well as for electronics and cosmetics.

RJ470MO is able to satisfy all of these requirements and do so faster than ever before by pushing back the boundaries of design and thickness, while at the same time increasing efficiency and saving cost. With a high fluidity Melt Flow Rate of 70, this new grade provides optimum transparency, quick demoulding and high output for injection moulded parts with very thin walls, long flow lengths and complex geometries.
