Defending Product Integrity: Advanced Barrier Solutions for Packaging
A high-performance barrier package functions as a robust “fortress,” providing comprehensive, multidimensional protection for its contents. It is well understood that oxygen ingress poses significant quality risks, and achieving effective protection often demands complex, multi-layer structures and intricate production processes. We introduce a breakthrough barrier masterbatch solution that enables superior barrier performance within a single-layer process—transforming packaging from passive containment to active defense against external threats, without compromising production efficiency or cost-effectiveness.
PET Oxygen Scavenger (PET OXYGEN SCAVENGER)
Our RPSZY™ Oxygen Scavenger is a dedicated technology for the PET and recycled PET (rPET) beverage packaging market. By actively removing oxygen from the headspace and permeating through the bottle wall, it significantly enhances product protection and extends the shelf life of oxygen-sensitive beverages. This fully recyclable solution has earned key FDA guidance recognition for PET materials. The RPSZY™ technology is entirely contained within the closure system, eliminating the need for oxygen scavengers or barrier layers in the bottle structure itself. It preserves perfect bottle clarity without discoloration, supports higher rPET content, and has no adverse impact on recycling streams.
UV and Light Blocking Additives
Our RPSZUV™ is an FDA-approved UVA-blocking masterbatch for PET, delivering outstanding optical clarity for food, cosmetic, and personal care packaging. Its low loading requirement can reduce UV protection costs by up to 40%. Suitable for injection molding, blow molding, and sheet extrusion processes, it is compatible with most standard PET grades and recycled PET (rPET). This solution effectively guards light-sensitive contents while maintaining the premium visual appeal of transparent packaging.
AA (Acetaldehyde) Scavenger
Acetaldehyde (AA) is a byproduct generated from the thermal degradation of PET polymer during extrusion or injection molding. Trace amounts of AA present in the material can migrate into bottled water or beverages over their shelf life, negatively affecting flavor and aroma profiles. Our AA Scavenger Masterbatch, with its subtle blue undertone, effectively neutralizes the yellowish tint often associated with recycled polyester (rPET) while actively capturing acetaldehyde molecules. For applications requiring enhanced color performance, we also offer AA scavengers in both solid and liquid formulations, ensuring compatibility with diverse processing and packaging needs.
