NatureFlexT NK Matt is ideal as the outer web of duplex and triplex structures. It is also suitable for use in laminations to other biopolymers (including grades of NatureFlexT) and for extrusion coating. Organic and Fair Trade companies are already trialing NatureFlexT NK Matt for products in the confectionery, dry foods, snacks and beverage sectors.
The natural look and sleek feel of NatureFlexT NK Matt in your pack enables your product to grab the attention of consumers on a crowded shelf.
