<strong>Ampac</strong> <strong>Engineers</strong> <strong>Improved</strong> <strong>Anti</strong>­<strong>Fog</strong> <strong>Technology</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Fresh</strong> <strong>Produce</strong> <strong>Packaging</strong><br />

1888 PressRelease ­ <strong>Ampac</strong> has engineered an improved anti­fog technology <strong>for</strong> film used in fresh produce<br />

packaging. <strong>Ampac</strong> has been a long time supplier of surface printed anti­fog OPP film with controlled<br />

per<strong>for</strong>ation <strong>for</strong> vegetables.<br />

<strong>Ampac</strong>, a division of Pro<strong>Ampac</strong>, and the world's leader in creative flexible packaging solutions, has<br />

engineered an improved anti­fog technology <strong>for</strong> film used in fresh produce packaging.<br />

<strong>Ampac</strong> has been a long time supplier of surface printed anti­fog OPP film with controlled per<strong>for</strong>ation <strong>for</strong><br />

vegetables. From a market need, and through the ef<strong>for</strong>ts of a strong technical team, <strong>Ampac</strong> developed<br />

coated films with superior anti­fog properties that help prevent condensation <strong>for</strong> heat sealable films. Unlike<br />

other technologies, the new anti­fog coating technology has excellent seal and hot tack properties and does<br />

not impact the coefficient of friction (COF) of the films, while providing improved transparency <strong>for</strong> fresh<br />

produce.<br />

In addition, the features and per<strong>for</strong>mance of the anti­fog coating works in conjunction with tailored<br />

per<strong>for</strong>ations in the film to control the respiration rate of different vegetables. This creates a unique<br />

combination that is attractive to grocers requiring improved properties <strong>for</strong> produce packaging. The anti­fog<br />

coating is exceptional <strong>for</strong> bag and lidding applications and is also FDA approved <strong>for</strong> microwave<br />

applications.<br />

According to Dr. Hesam Tabatabaei, Pro<strong>Ampac</strong>'s Director of Research, Innovation and <strong>Technology</strong>, "Our<br />

new anti­fog technology offers improved clarity with technical advances that improve line efficiencies on<br />

<strong>for</strong>m fill and seal packaging machines. The improved clarity helps drive sales of fresh produce by<br />

highlighting the freshness of the product. We're excited to add this new anti­fog technology to Pro<strong>Ampac</strong>'s<br />

broad portfolio of innovative flexible packaging solutions."<br />
