Biobased Flow 1.7
Biobased Flow 1.7 from Finnish company Sulapac is a sustainable and functional natural fiber compound for thermoforming that combines the functionality of plastic with the advantages of fiber materials. The foil is biobased, industrially compostable, and has a low carbon footprint.
Safe material approved for food contact
Flow 1.7 is a quality-controlled material, free from PFAS, and tested by independent certified laboratories. The material is approved for food contact and is well-suited for the production of single-use food packaging and similar applications.
Optimized for thermoforming
Designed to fit a wide range of manufacturing processes, Flow 1.7 forms better at lower temperatures than conventional plastic, which can significantly reduce energy consumption during production. The foil’s broad temperature tolerance provides greater flexibility, simplifies processing, and increases production efficiency.
Applications
Sulapac’s Flow 1.7 is a foil suitable for producing various types of packaging. The material offers beneficial properties for the production of packaging for exclusive products as well as functional packaging for retail, transportation, food, and more. For those seeking an alternative to conventional PS or PP, Flow 1.7 can be an excellent option.
