Borealis offers a broad product portfolio of homopolymers, heterophasic and random copolymers that can be used in a variety of applications.
The thermoforming industry continues to show steady growth. Around 90% of the total market in thermoformed products is made up by rigid packaging forms for food, including cups and trays for fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy, meat and fish products, and the increasingly popular ready-to-eat convenience items. Packaging techniques such as modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) help lock in freshness and extend shelf life. Microwavable trays make life more convenient for today's consumers.
Borealis offers a broad product portfolio of homopolymers, heterophasic and random copolymers that can be used in a variety of applications.
Our full range of PP products for thermoforming offers advantages such as product consistency, a good balance of mechanical properties in terms of stiffness/impact and excellent processing behaviour in terms of extrusion/thermoformability which enables lightweighting along with even thickness distribution.
By using our thermoforming solutions, our industry partners are better able to address sustainability needs not only by the downgauging and lightweighting potential offered by our solutions, but also by substituting other rigid packaging materials by thermoforming.
