EnkaseTM packaging barrier technology
What is Barrier Packaging?
Barrier packaging prevents ingredient permeation, protects the environment and preserves the quality of the product ensuring regulatory compliance.
Enkase™ provides barrier protection against permeation for polyolefin containers, ensuring the quality, safety and compliance of customer’s products, while maintaining recyclability.
How Enkase™ Works
Many factors contribute to the design of barrier packaging, including formulation ingredients, shelf life, packaging material and much more.
Enkase™ seals plastic packaging with the option of three levels of barrier performance -L3, L5 and L9-, which is determined by the formulation of the product. Enkase™ leads to longer storage life, greater ability to reduce container weight and higher performance for more challenging components and formulations in a wide variety of industries.
Whether it’s a 1 ml or 1,000+ liter container, we are proud to offer the most versatile and adaptable recyclable barrier solution to meet or exceed global packaging standards.
Sustainability with Enkase™
For more than 40 years, we have been helping achieve a more sustainable future with our recyclable barrier packaging technology, Enkase™.
Life cycle assessments of Enkase™ compared to other commercially available barrier packaging technologies, demonstrate it has 27% less global warming potential and 22% less fossil fuel consumption.
Approved by the largest recycling associations around the world, Enkase™ maintains the recyclability of HDPE, making it recyclable in any existing HDPE stream and collection system with no additional set up required.
