INNATE™ polyethylene resins

Scouted and summarized by Halo AI

Overview

Conventional flexible packaging uses multi-material laminates (PE + PET + nylon) that cannot be recycled. INNATE resins achieve comparable performance in all-PE mono-material structures recyclable through established PE streams. INNATE ST provides high dart impact and tear resistance for downgauged blown films. INNATE TF produces stiff, optically clear biaxially oriented PE films replacing OPP and OPET in lamination.

Technical specifications

• INNATE ST (Super Tough): blown film resins with high dart impact and tear resistance for downgauged mono-PE packaging
• INNATE TF (Tenter Frame): PE resins for biaxial orientation producing stiff, clear films replacing OPP and OPET
• Downgauging: thinner films with equivalent or better mechanical performance
• Recyclability: enables mono-PE structures recyclable through existing PE infrastructure
• Applications: food packaging pouches, pet food bags, rice bags, heavy-duty sacks, liquid pouches
• Commercial validation: all-PE pouches and SUP packaging in market (collaborations with Guangdong Decro, CaiHua, NanCheng, KAIDA Group)
