Pentapharm® ACLAR® PA600/02 films are made with Honeywell’s 152-micron ACLAR® UltRx6000, which is 50% thicker than the current maximum gauge ACLAR® films available in the marketplace today, for a 50% increase in moisture barrier. Ideal for solid oral-dose packaging, powders, ethical drugs, OTC, generics, physician samples, veterinary medicine, and nutraceuticals that require ultra, ultra-high moisture barrier, Pentapharm® ACLAR® PA600/02 films are a cost-effective solution as these films allow for small footprint packages, which require less material and total cost per package as compared to other packages in the non-polymer ultra-high barrier range.
Pentapharm® ACLAR® 600/02 films are transparent, non-yellowing, and offer excellent machinability on existing
standard form/fill/seal packaging lines and tooling. With rigid vinyl as the product contact layer, Pentapharm® ACLAR® 600/02 films offer sealability to common vinyl-compatible lidstocks.
“Pentapharm® ACLAR® 600/02 films were developed in response to customers’ needs for an ultra, ultra-high moisture barrier pharmaceutical film,” notes Charles Baechler, Vice President, Pharma Business Unit, Klöckner Pentaplast/Europe. “The expansion of our pharmaceutical film range to include this film, along with our existing Pentapharm® films, continues to provide our customers with the broadest available selection of barrier films in the industry.”
