2019	The company launched a Cast Polypropylene (CPP) film for packaging applications requiring a high moisture and oxygen barrier and high hot tack properties. The heat-sealable CPP films also offer high hot tack (>600gf/inch over a range of 100-140 degrees Celsius) and low seal initiation temperature, enabling packaging machines to run at higher speeds.
