It is very important for the film converter that the processing operation is smooth, efficient and trouble-free. High output is a must, the bubble must not burst and cause production delay, and the thickness profile of the film should be stable. The downgauging flexibility of the film is important for cost reduction, as is the flexibility to use both mono and coextrusion processes.
Borealis’ proprietary Borstar technology is built on process and catalyst technology development and is a focal point of the company’s innovation programme. The company uses this technology to design molecular structured materials to meet customers’ specific needs. Borstar PE and PP capacity expansion in both Europe and the Middle East is a core ingredient of the company’s strategy.
