SELIG Group has introduced a new PP backed DELTASEAL liner.
The two-piece liner can be used to seal dry and oily food containers. Thanks to the replacement of the original board layer with PP foam, the solution is said to promote the ‘easy recycling’ of PP caps in suitable recycling streams.
The foam product that replaces the board is denser than traditional foam and has been created in a thickness of 0.9mm to ensure rigidity is maintained throughout the lifespan of the product’s use.
The DELTASEAL liner consists of aluminium foil coated with a heat seal layer, that is temporarily polymer bonded to the PP reseal backing material. The temporary polymer lamination eliminates the use of wax. By using different coating technologies, Selig explained its DELTASEAL liner can be attached to glass, PP or PET containers to create a 100% hermetic tamper-evident seal.
Peter Tindale, European sales director at Selig Group, said, “Liners have a part to play in achieving a clean recycling stream and more and more producers are looking for solutions that support their sustainable packaging strategies. By offering the PP backed DELTASEAL liner, we are helping our customers to resolve their cap and liner recycling issues.”
