Honeywell Capran® Films

Flexible Packaging

Flexible Packaging
Capran® biaxially-oriented nylon film is used in a variety of applications from food and produce packaging to lidding and protective packaging.
 
Honeywell's family of Capran® nylon films give food and beverage packagers and converters better barrier, better economy and more flexibility. By incorporating Capran® biaxially-oriented nylon films in your packaging, you can meet a virtually unlimited range of flexible food packaging needs:
 
Exceptional strength and toughness
Superior oxygen barrier
Flavor/odor/aroma barrier
Scratch and flex-crack resistance
Resistance to grease, oils, solvents and acidic foods
Clarity and printability for consumer appeal


These films also possess excellent process stability and perform well at both high and low temperatures. Packages made with Honeywell films are microwaveable, recyclable and incinerate without releasing harmful substances to the atmosphere.

Capran® is valuable in a variety of non-food flexible packaging applications:

C2500M is used for lidding for instant coffees and fresh, frozen pizzas due to its tensile strength, flex crack, and Graves tear resistance.

The high puncture resistance of Capran® protects the foil barrier, especially puncture resistance from the inside coffee grounds, and ensures freshness in vacuum-packed coffee bricks.

Capran® has the strength, toughness, flex-crack and puncture resistance needed to protect large and small stand-up shampoo pouches.
