1
Flexible Packaging Lamination Sealant Film
🛡️ Robust Sealing Shield — Load-bearing & Hermetic Heat-Seal Heart of Flexible Packaging
Technical Pain Points & Real-World Risks
• Seam Leaks & Bursting: Substandard PE sealant layers delaminate at high packaging speeds or under contamination.
• Lamination Delamination: Uneven surface tension causes separation between the printing film (BOPP, PET) and the PE sealant.
• Drop Impact Rupture: Weak Hot Tack causes bottom seam blowout when heavy products drop into the pouch.
NOVAPLEX® 5-Layer Engineering Solution
• Low SIT Sealing Technology (88°C – 95°C): Narrow molecular weight polyethylene surface delivers instant tack at lowered initiation temperatures.
• Superior Hot Tack (> 4.0 N/15mm): Protects pouch bottom seals on high-speed automatic VFFS/HFFS packaging lines.
• Balanced 5-Layer Barrier: Core layers B and D ensure optical flatness for uniform adhesive spread and maximum bonding strength.
Technical Specs & Structures

High-Performance Printable PE Film
🛡️ Sharp in Every Detail — Perfect Ink Adhesion & Thermal Oven Stretch Resistance
Technical Pain Points & Real-World Risks
• Image Distortion & Pitch Deviation: PE film elongates in Machine Direction (MD) through high-temperature oven drying zones on gravure/flexo presses.
• Dyne Decay: Surface tension drops rapidly in storage, leading to ink flaking during Tape Tests.
• Melt Fracture (Sharkskin): Wavy or cloudy film surface causes blurred, non-HD printing reproduction.
NOVAPLEX® 5-Layer Engineering Solution

Deep Freeze (-18°C to -25°C) & Seafood Packaging
🛡️ Tough Resilience Shield — Defying Sharp Crab Claws, Fish Fins & Deep Sub-Zero Frost
Technical Pain Points & Real-World Risks
• Sub-Zero Brittleness: Severe -25°C freezing conditions make standard PE brittle, cracking under logistics vibration.
• Pinhole Punctures: Sharp fish fins, frozen shrimp claws, and bones puncture pouches, destroying vacuum integrity.

FMCG & Home Care (Spout Pouch / Refill Packaging)
🛡️ Liquid Barrier Shield — Withstanding Drop Impact & Aggressive Chemical Surfactants
Technical Pain Points & Real-World Risks
• Drop Impact Rupture: Heavy liquid pouches (1.5L–3L detergent, fabric softener) burst at edge seams or spout welds when dropped.
• Chemical Joint Attack: Surfactants in shampoos and dish liquids penetrate and weaken heat-seal boundaries.
• Pouch Sagging: Flimsy PE causes stand-up pouches to slump and topple on retail display shelves.
NOVAPLEX® 5-Layer Engineering Solution
• 1.5m–2.0m Free-Drop Resistance: High-tenacity polymer blends absorb severe hydrostatic shock without pouch or spout rupture.
• Low SIT Spout Welding (88°C–95°C): Melts tightly around contoured plastic spout bases, preventing micro-channel leaks.

Heavy-Duty Agriculture, Fertilizer & Pet Food (10kg - 25kg)
🛡️ Heavy-Duty Load Shield — Moisture-Locked & 100% Safe Pallet Stacking
Technical Pain Points & Real-World Risks
• Pallet Stacking Seam Blowout: Heavy 10kg–25kg NPK fertilizer or pet food bags burst bottom seams under multi-tier stack compression.
• Moisture Caking & Spoilage: High moisture transmission causes fertilizers to liquefy and pet kibble to mold.
• Bag Creep & Pallet Collapse: Inadequate film rigidity allows bag stretching, risking warehouse pallet collapse.
