Dow Presents OPULUX HGT for High-Gloss PE-Based Packaging
At K 2019, Dow introduced a new optical finishing for polyethylene (PE)-based packaging to support brand owners and converters in addressing recyclability targets. The new OPULUX™ HGT Optical Finishes can help replace PE/PET or PE/BOPP laminated packaging structures with a PE-based concept that offers high thermal and chemical resistance and delivers excellent optics.
The finishes, which are suitable for many packaging formats and most common coating and packaging equipment, has been recognized as a breakthrough technology at this year’s Edison Awards in the bronze category.
