- Smokable Sausage Casings Application Data
Details
Arnitel® ECO is bio-based material with up to 50% reduction in carbon footprint.Benefits
- Arnitel® TPC and Akulon® PA6 allow for reliable solutions since they yield excellent smoke penetration leading to great taste and sausage structure and high quality
- Arnitel® TPC and Akulon® PA6 allow for sustainable solutions, since they are free of substances of hazardous concerns and thus more environmentally friendly than cellulose casings
- Bio-Based Panliners Application Data
Details
For the application in pan liners, Arnitel® Eco offers a range of benefits. These include a reduction of 65% in the carbon footprint compared to the material that is traditionally used, significant reduction in food being wasted and lower cleaning costs thanks to a reduction in the use of detergents, energy and labor. Especially for food contact applications, Arnitel® Eco has an important feature: food does not stick to it. This gives a higher yield and quality of the food presented.Benefits
- Arnitel® Eco TPC allows for more sustainable solutions, since it offers 65% CO₂ reduction compared to conventional materails and sincefood does not stick to the panliner made in Arnitel® Eco
- Arnitel® Eco TPC allows for more reliable solutions due to its extremely durability and temperature resistance up to 200°C
- Cooking Bag Application Data
Details
Cooking bags great way to prepare food. The only problem is the tendency of contents like chicken or ham to stick to the bag as the oven gets hotter. The result: wastage and a slightly disappointing eating experience. Not any more, thanks to Arnitel® Eco thermoplastic.Benefits
- Arnitel® TPC allows for reliable solutions due to its extreme elasticity, incredible strength and temperature resistamce up to 200°C
- Arnitel® TPC allows for solutions with soft touch and feel
- Arnitel® TPC allows for sustainable solutions, since the food does not stick to the package thereby reducing food waste
- Snowboard Cover Laminates Application Data
Details
Arnitel® can accept the colorful and complex designs that snowboarders demand via sublimation printingBenefits
- Arnitel® TPC EM740 allows for reliable solutions due to its combination of a Shore D hardness of 74, its superior cold temperature impact resistance and fatigue endurance and due to its good UV resistance
- Arnitel® TPC EM740 allows for cost effective solutions since it can be bonded well to the board substrate
