Our high performance sealant films are found in products as diverse as shredded cheese, pet treats, wipes, and your favorite retail coffee brand.  Our films are a component part of the packages you see on supermarket shelves, convenience stores, home & garden centers, hospitals, and in households around the nation. Our customers, and the brand owners they serve, depend on us to deliver the performance and consistency they need in an increasingly competitive marketplace.

Here are some of the top packaging applications for our films:

  • Cheese. We have a broad portfolio of high performance films and manufacture millions of pounds of film for the demanding cheese market.

  • Wipes. The explosion of the wipes market and the introduction of new products into the wipes format has meant that film manufacturers have had to continue to adapt and develop new products.

  • Coffee. For over 20 years, NEX Performance Films has been providing sealant film solutions for the coffee market.

  • Lidding. We have a variety of proven sealant films used in the high performance lidding market.

  • Pet Food. We love our pets and we love pet food packaging. With our use of metallocene sealants we can provide films that will pass the palatability requirements that are critical in pet food packaging.

  • Meat Snacks. With their extended shelf life—up to 18 months without refrigeration—packaged meat snacks are one of the most technically challenging products to package.

  • Lawn & Garden. From films for surface printed PE bags to sealants for sophisticated laminations for Stand Up Pouches, from potting soil to pesticides, we’ve got you covered.
