Composite panels can be designed for specific strength, stiffness and weight requirements – learn more in this webinar Composite sandwich panels offer a unique solution that can bridge the gap between weight, performance, and design flexibility.  They are custom engineered to meet specific performance requirements: core thickness can be varied to change stiffness, core materials can be selected to achieve weight targets, fiber choice can modify stiffness-to-weight ratio, and the polymer matrix choice affects strength.

Each stage can result in material loss and degradation, impacting the overall yield. Advanced additives can play a role here as well.  This can be a deterrent for brand owners who prioritize the visual appeal of their packaging.

This degradation can impact the processability, quality, and food safety of packaging made from rPET. They can accumulate over time, leading to potential regulatory and safety concerns. These scavengers can also lead to the formation of non-intentionally added substances (NIAS) that can accumulate and pose compliance risks.

This can be especially true if you want smaller quantities, or need a wide range of colors. There are some things you can do to help minimize these challenges. Liquid color can provide up to a 50% reduction in changeover time compared to solid.

Can incorporate more natural sources to create a stronger sustainable story  Choosing recycled content can be more limiting from a surface aesthetic and colorability standpoint, but brands can share a waste diversion story that supports a circular economy. With bio-based content, design freedom is much broader and brands can promote using a renewable source.

Specific applications where TPEs can help include: Soft and semi-rigid orthotics can benefit from the use of soft TPEs. Vibration and noise damping: Reducing the amount of vibration or noise given off by medical equipment can enhance comfort.

The closure can be the most essential part of the package for the consumer experience.   This can help brands and retailers reach 2025 sustainability targets and beyond.   The challenges to do so, however, can seem insurmountable.
