“The new material is better because the finished trays are so much clearer,” says Markus Dux of Vital, which is located in Erkelenz, Germany.
Evertis is the supplier of the new material, which Evertis describes as a APET/PE Pel material with a thickness of 400 microns. Lidding material, which did not change when the new forming web entered the picture, includes a layer of EVOH for gas barrier purposes.
