The  new equipment guarantees around  30% increase in the metallization capacity of polyester films, incorporating the most modern technology in the Americas;

this technology reduces problems during metallization process, and can detect small failures in films online that the human eye cannot.

Research conducted by Markets and Markets™ estimates that the global market for metallized flexible packaging could achieve $5.8 billion by 2025, due to the migration of products traditionally presented in rigid packaging (metal can, cardboard and glass) to flexible packaging, increasing the demand for special films with high humidity, water and light barrier. Some of the markets are condiments, coffee, snacks, candies, dairy products, fresh produced and prepared meals.
