Engineered Material Flexibility
The performance of flexible packaging depends heavily on the materials selected for its structure. No single material provides every required property, which is why multilayer and laminated structures are widely used for demanding packaging applications. At Sujatha Polymers, different substrates can be combined and processed according to the functional requirements of the final packaging solution.
Flexible Packaging Substrates
A broad range of materials can be selected and combined according to the required packaging performance.
Polyester (PET)
PET is widely used in packaging structures where good dimensional stability, strength and printability are required. It can form an important outer layer in multilayer packaging constructions.
Nylon
Nylon provides useful mechanical properties and is suitable for applications where toughness and durability are important.
BOPP
Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene, commonly known as BOPP, offers useful optical and printing characteristics and is widely used in flexible packaging applications.
Aluminum Foil
Aluminum foil can provide strong barrier properties against moisture, gases and light. It can be incorporated into laminated structures where enhanced protection is required.
LDPE & HDPE
Polyethylene materials such as LDPE and HDPE are commonly used for packaging structures and bags. They can provide useful flexibility, toughness and sealing characteristics depending on the grade and application.
Polypropylene (PP)
PP is another versatile polymer used in packaging applications where specific mechanical, processing and sealing characteristics are required.
Paper & Cellophane
Paper and cellophane provide additional substrate options for packaging applications where appearance, printability or specific functional characteristics are required.
Why Multilayer Structures?
Combining complementary materials allows individual properties to work together within one engineered packaging structure.
Different packaging materials have different strengths. Combining them through appropriate lamination or coextrusion allows manufacturers to engineer a structure with multiple functional properties.
Sujatha Polymers' Material Flexibility
Broad substrate compatibility supported by sophisticated manufacturing and lamination capabilities.
Multiple Materials. One Engineered Solution.
Our manufacturing capabilities support a broad range of substrates and sophisticated lamination processes, allowing us to develop packaging structures suited to diverse requirements. By combining materials according to the intended application, packaging structures can be engineered around the required balance of printability, strength, barrier protection and sealability.
