3-Step Value Sequence
01 MATERIAL
Polymer SelectionPET + EVOH

PET and EVOH barrier films extend food shelf life by weeks without chemical preservatives.

02 ENGINEERING
Co-Extrusion ArchitectureCo-extrusion

Multi-layer barrier pouches use micro-thin films (5-7 layers) to block 99.9% of oxygen and moisture.

03 APPLICATION
High-Load Transport50kg Grain Sack

A single 50g PP woven sack reliably transports 50kg of agricultural grain across thousands of kilometres.

Indian Industrial Benchmark

Manjushree Technopack, UFlex, Supreme Industries & Huhtamaki India produce billions of multi-layer barrier containers and flexible pouches annually, keeping FMCG goods fresh from factory to remote villages.
