Remove Packaging
- DuPont™ Surlyn® EasyUp — strong but easy-to-tear bundling film that replaces cardboard
- DuPont™ Elvanol® polyvinyl alcohol — water soluble material for dissolvable films or repulpable coating on paper board
Reduce Packaging
- DuPont™ Biomax® Strong modifier — modifier that enables thinner, less brittle PLA packages
- DuPont™ Surlyn® skin and stretch packaging resins — secure packaging film that can replace bulky clamshells and blisters
- DuPont™ Surlyn® super stiff resins — allows downgauging with same strength, performance, and feel
- DuPont™ Cyrel® FAST — flexographic platemaking process that reduces energy consumption, eliminates use of solvents, and offers lower GHG emissions
- DuPont™ Appeel® sealant resin — sealant for lidding applications that replaces solvent based lacquers and provides strong, peelable seals
Renew(able) Packaging
- DuPont™ Biomax® RS 1000 PTT polymer — partially renewably sourced material with polyester-like performance
- DuPont™ Selar® VP — breathable, 30% renewably sourced material
- DuPont™ Pro-Cote® soy polymers — protein-based binder for coatings and inks
