EDI® Barrier Film Dies
Manufacture film that delivers superior protection against oxygen, moisture, and odors.
Overview
As global attention on sustainability continues to grow, barrier film producers must focus resources on delivering products that help reduce food and material waste.
Create Effective Barrier Film
Now more than ever, it's critical that the barrier films used in food packaging provide the superior qualities required to extend shelf life. Ensuring these films have the capability to prevent moisture, oxygen, or odor from quickly ruining perishable items is no easy task - but with the use of the right extrusion equipment, it becomes much easier to produce highly effective barrier films.

Benefitting Your Process
Deliver Film With Consistent Barrier Properties Throughout Its Width
By uniformly distributing barrier properties across the width, the Multiflow™ 10 manifold also helps processors quickly refine their production process to increase the output of saleable film.
Manufacture Film That’s Ready for a Packaging Challenge
The Multiflow™ 10 manifold features larger preland gaps and longer lip lands to prevent coextrusion instability. This means the desired layer-to-layer ratio remains virtually the same throughout the width of the film, giving packaging producers reassurance that their product will perform as expected.
