What is Barrier Packaging?
Barrier packaging prevents ingredient permeation, protects the environment and preserves the quality of the product ensuring regulatory compliance.
Enkase™ provides barrier protection against permeation for polyolefin containers, ensuring the quality, safety and compliance of customer’s products, while maintaining recyclability.
How Enkase™ Works
Many factors contribute to the design of barrier packaging, including formulation ingredients, shelf life, packaging material and much more.
Enkase™ seals plastic packaging with the option of three levels of barrier performance -L3, L5 and L9-, which is determined by the formulation of the product. Enkase™ leads to longer storage life, greater ability to reduce container weight and higher performance for more challenging components and formulations in a wide variety of industries.
Whether it’s a 1 ml or 1,000+ liter container, we are proud to offer the most versatile and reliable recyclable barrier solution to meet or exceed global packaging standards. Enkase can be applied to any polyolefin material, regardless of size, shape, or quantity, providing full design flexibility. Additionally, Enkase™ ensures 100% batch quality inspection, making it the most dependable barrier packaging technology available.
Sustainability with Enkase™
For more than 40 years, we have been helping achieve a more sustainable future with our recyclable barrier packaging technology, Enkase™.
Life cycle assessments have shown that Enkase™ outperforms other commercially available barrier packaging technologies, demonstrating a 27% reduction in global warming potential and a 22% decrease in fossil fuel consumption. This significant reduction minimizes the carbon footprint.
Enkase™ significantly contributes to the circular economy by maintaining the recyclability of HDPE. Approved by the largest recycling associations globally, Enkase™ ensures that HDPE packaging treated with this technology remains recyclable with existing HDPE recycling streams and collection systems, requiring no additional setup.
