Material Data Sheet:
PolyClean Clear (PLC1)

 

Scratch Resistant Film

 

Ideal for packaging products with high-gloss finishes or surfaces sensitive to abrasion

  • Low density polyethylene film contains no anti-block additives, which are used to keep bags from sticking together, but can cause minor surface chafing to the packaged product
  • Instead, a unique embossing technique creates a durable yet pliable bag that doesn't scratch delicate surfaces

Material Data Sheet:
Scratch Resistant (NSCR) 

 

Rust-resistant Film

 

Protects ferrous metals, such as steel and iron, from rust and corrosion

  • Contains volatile corrosion inhibitor (VCI) that generates an invisible layer of corrosion protection on the ferrous metal itself, protecting it from rusting inside the package
  • Prevents low levels of moisture from reaching the ferrous metal
  • Contains a very low moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR), preventing moisture from reaching the bagged products
  • Does not alter the electrical or mechanical properties of the bagged product

Material Data Sheet: 
Rust-resistant (CVCI) 

 

Static Dissipative Film

 

Linear low density polyethylene film with a special additive prevents static build-up and protects packaged products from static discharge

  • Designed for packaging of non-ESD, static-sensitive electrical and electronic components

Specialty Food Films, Anti-Fog

 

Low density polyethylene film that incorporates a special additive to reduce the film's surface tension

  • When condensation forms within the bag, AFOG material does not allow moisture to form into water droplets. Droplets make the bag appear foggy and can obscure the view of the product inside, distracting from its visual appeal
  • Instead, the moisture is spread into a thin sheet, which allows the bagged contents to remain visible
  • Good clarity and prints well inline when date/lot codes or other variable data is required
