The MDO‑PE pouch is a recyclable mono-material packaging solution developed by Walki and Dow that will give food producers a packaging option that embraces recycling requirements.
The packaging offers a premium matte finish that comes in contrast to other MDO-PE films on the market that have a glossy profile to accommodate the requirements of a wider swath of brands. The matte finish will also help producers to set their product apart from the competition in the freezer case or on the store shelf. The finish is achieved without the use of additional coatings that would otherwise be incompatible with the recyclable nature of the packaging.
The MDO‑PE pouch from Walki and Dow is optimized for strong machinability and sealing to further enhance its ability to be implemented in existing setups.
