Michelman to Debut Pair of Water-Based Coatings at Labelexpo
Michelman will introduce two new barrier coatings at Labelexpo Europe 2017, from September 25-28 in Brussels. Visitors to the show will get a first look at the company’s water-based Michem Flex Barrier coatings formulated to create an oxygen and mineral oil migration barrier on flexible packaging film and paper.
Michem Flex Barrier 3510 is a transparent, high oxygen barrier coating that can extend the shelf life of oxygen sensitive products. After being applied to either polymer or polyester substrates in packaging laminate structures used in food packaging applications, it can reduce oxygen transmission rates up to < 5 cc/m2/day. Not only can Michem Flex Barrier 3510 improve shelf life, it preserves product appearance and flavor, and potentially minimizes preservative use. It also allows for increased shelf appeal, because its transparency enhances visibility of the product through the packaging.
