Developed for the thin-gauge packaging market, Packalloy MLB™ can be customized to end user's requirements. Up to five layers of thin-gauge thermoplastic sheet are combined to meet the customer's specifications for oxygen and water rate transmission. Although other two-layer barrier products exist, Packalloy MLB™ is the only multi-layered product that combines the attributes of various engineered resins.




An electro-static dissipative alloy sheet, Ultros ESD™ serves as an ideal packaging material for electronic components or other static sensitive products.




A thin-gauge/multi-layer packaging material with barrier properties, produced through our advanced extrusion technology, Packalloy Clear Pac™ has exceptional clarity and strength for use in food packaging applications.




Recently introduced at Pack Expo, Spartech PackAlloy TPX is a polypropylene based sheet product which has been specifically formulated for fabrication into packaging containers which are revolutionizing the packaging industry. The moisture protection achieved with PackAlloy TPX, which can be augmented with barrier laminations, provides the food processor with a container that provides both moisture and controlled atmosphere performance for extended shelf life for a wide variety of food packaging applications.




PackAlloy TFPP, a mineral filled polypropylene from our color and specialty compounds group, has been engineered to meet the physical properties, color and FDA performance criteria for a new innovative food serving product. This new Serve'n Store dinnerware by Hefty, made from PackAlloy TFPP, provides the consumer with plates and bowls which can be snapped together, becoming one container utilized to store, reheat in the microwave, and then serve food products again.




Extruded by our Custom Sheet & Rollstock Group, Spartech's new low taste and odor product, Packalloy LTO, provides superior organoleptic properties for olefin based food container applications. Packalloy LTO is currently being thermoformed into breakfast cereal bowls where the previous olefin material utilized had a tendency towards plastic flavor migration. Utilizing Packalloy LTO, sensitive food and medical products can be packaged without concern for flavor degradation.




Packalloy EOB is designed to meet today's demanding applications in the food packaging industry, including aseptic, hot fill, and retort packaging. The enhanced oxygen barrier extends shelf life for this new Spartech Plastics product, which can be used in both shelf stable and refrigerated environments. Baby food, cereal, applesauce containers, and dips & spreads are just a few of the applications for Packalloy EOB.




A member of our Packalloy family, this material is a calcium filled polypropylene and is available as either a compound or sheet product. The economic savings offered by Packalloy CFPP, as well as its cold impact strength, should produce a variety of possibilities for this material in the food packaging industry. Current target applications for this product include freezer/microwaveable trays, along with several other food packaging containers.




A member of our Packalloy family, this new material is designed to meet today's demanding packaging applications where the use of recycled thermoplastic is needed both for selected economic and design considerations.
