Lamination is the act of assembling two or more materials or supports together. There are 3 important parameters to consider: the “glue” used, the pressure and the temperature. TYPE OF PROCESSES It exists various processes, of which the following is a non-exhaustive list: – Dry lamination: the process of dry lamination is the action of coating…
Every object or earth body emits energy by radiation. We can take as an example (in a house): the walls, furniture, the residents, pets … This energy is emitted in the form of very long infrared waves. This ability to emit by radiation is called emissivity. The more an object has high emissivity, the more…
The Vacuum Insulation Panel (VIP) is a ultra-thin and high-performance insulating material that can be up to 20 times more efficient than traditional insulation products. The VIP provides optimum energy efficiency while preserving the useful volume of household appliances, temperature controlled packaging or refrigerated transport systems. A Vacuum Insulation Panel consists in a highly porous…
The transformation of plastic films consists to give technical characteristics to the plastic films. For example, to make a polyester film printable or heat sealable, we coat film with a polish. The formulation is a process that creates varnishes which will give the plastic films the properties required according to their applications. The achievement…

In order to have technical characteristics, such as printability or sealability, plastic films must be coated with a varnish that will give these properties. As the market moves towards more specificities, it becomes imperative to develop custom-made varnishes, responding to increasingly precise specifications. You can develop your own varnish using our facilities, via our two…
Barrier films to Gas and Water Vapour for food packaging are one of the first applications of plastic films or laminates. The barrier properties of plastic food packaging ensure that the taste of the food is maintained, while protecting against external contamination. The flexible substrates (plastic films, aluminium foil, etc.) are combined thanks to a…
