Applications

CPP Candy Wrap

  • Cast polypropylene (CPP) films had emerged as an alternative to replace cellophane, PVC or wax paper allowing for donwgauging, economic advantage because PP has a lower density and very few restrictions in converting.

  • Candy wrap films require good optical properties, low thickness and high stiffness to give good dead fold characteristics during conversion.

  • They are also required to have very good organoleptic and mechanical properties.

  • Coefficient of Friction (CoF) is a major factor in conversion of PP films.

  • This is influenced by slip agent used and the film reel storage conditions – as slip migration in PP is time dependent.
