Sustainability is a key factor in the rise in demand for high-barrier films since they serve to prevent food waste, reduce packaging and replace mixed-material alufoil laminates.
Toppan has developed “GL-ME-RC,” a new grade that provides high-barrier performance combined with light-shielding. Expanding the scope of applications for GL BARRIER films, GL-ME-RC is available for markets in Japan and overseas from April.
With e-commerce sales predicted to be at an all-time high this holiday season, and online grocery orders expected to increase at least 50 percent, transporting products in a safe and efficient way is more important than ever.
