Harnessing the Strength of High Tensile MOPP and BOPP Films
In the dynamic world of packaging, the pursuit of innovation has led to the emergence of novel materials that offer unparalleled strength, versatility, and sustainability. Among these groundbreaking solutions, High Tensile Machine Direction Oriented Polypropylene (MOPP) and Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) films have garnered significant attention for their transformative capabilities. Trico Specialty Films Taperite and TREAX TX-T products are the solution for the most demanding applications.
Taperite is a high tensile MOPP film that leverages the inherent strength of polypropylene, further augmented through the orientation of polymer chains predominantly in the machine direction. This orientation, combined with high tensile properties, ensures Taperite’s optimum performance in demanding packaging applications.
TREAX TX-T is a high tensile BOPP film that undergoes a stretching process in both the machine and transverse directions, resulting in a material that is extremely strong in the machine direction with excellent clarity and stiffness. TX-T finds extensive usage in various flexible packaging applications due to its versatility and cost-effectiveness.
