GREAT LOOKS AND A SIMPLER PROCESS The addition of just a small amount of a relatively low-cost additive during the film production process can make the difference between a product ending up in the shopping cart, or staying on the shelf—possibly until it has to be thrown away. EASY-PEEL + ANTI-FOG: A WIN FOR CONSUMERS AND MANUFACTURERS The combination of easy-peel and anti- fog in a complete system has important advantages for film processors, particularly when it comes to costs: • Ready-to-process grades simplify logistics and ease processing • Broad sealing window for fast and flexible processing • No need for an extra processing step to bring peel & anti-fog effects • No need for corona treatment of the packaging 7© 2020 Avient Corporation, 33587 Walker Road, Avon Lake, Ohio USA 44012 YOUR NEXT STEP? Anti-fog additives are a cost-efficient means of maintaining the high optical qualities of polyolefin films used to pack perishable fresh foods.
