Applications

Where the material is used

A retort pouch and a dry-snack bag can use the same films and still need different adhesives. These are the three applications the range is built around.

The application decides the grade

Two structures can look identical on paper and need different chemistry in practice. What changes the answer is what happens after lamination: retort, pasteurisation, hot fill, or nothing at all.

Process conditionWhat it demands
Retort 121 °CRetort-grade adhesive; standard grades fail after filling
Pasteurisation 85 °CHeat and moisture resistance beyond ambient grades
Hot fillBond strength at temperature during the fill cycle
Ambient dry foodGeneral purpose; adhesion to treated PE is the usual test

Tell us the fill, not just the film

The process condition is the single detail that changes the grade most.
