Berry Global’s European flexible films business has launched a new version of its high performance, NorDiVent form fill seal (FFS) film for powdered products that now incorporates up to 50% recycled plastic content.
The new film meets customer and consumer demand for products with increased recycled content as part of the company’s 2025 sustainability strategy and its commitment to devise solutions to meet and exceed customers’ sustainability goals. Equally significant, the incorporation of the recycled material has been achieved while maintaining the many user benefits of NorDiVent.
Its durable and patented construction delivers a consistently reliable performance. The film is fully waterproof and ensures air is let out in a dust free manner, offering effective moisture protection for products that need to be kept dry and enabling sacks to be stored outdoors. Its high tear resistance provides further product protection and avoids spillages and product waste throughout the supply chain. A variety of options, including antistatic, enable the film to cope with the most challenging applications and products. The quality of the film also allows printing in up to eight colours to create impactful branding and maximise on-shelf presence.
‘NorDiVent provides a reliable, long term dust free and moisture free solution for the filling and packing of all types of powdered products, such as chemicals and construction materials,’ said Frank Heseding, sales director, Berry Global.
These benefits have now been further enhanced by the introduction of a range of Sustane premium recycled polymers at levels of up to 50%. The range includes polymers produced from recycled plastic – both post consumer and pre consumer. A blend of both variants is available allowing for customisation that aligns with the customer’s specific requirements.
‘Our ability to include recycled content into NorDiVent is a demonstration of both our technical skills and our determination to deliver solutions that meet our customers’ needs in terms of quality and reliability as well as sustainability,’ explained Frank Heseding. ‘This is important as it is essential that sustainability goals are advanced, but not at the expense of a sack’s overall purpose, especially since the performance of a sack throughout the supply chain can have a marked effect on its environmental impact.’
