Melodea unveils new biobased food packaging coating
In Israel, Melodea introduced its newest innovation, MelOx NGen, a high-performance barrier product specifically engineered to allow for the recyclability of plastic food packaging.
MelOx NGen is a water-based, plant-sourced coating designed to line the inside surface of numerous forms of plastic food packaging such as films, pouches, bags, lidding, and blister packs used to house CPG products and is currently being rolled out to the global plastic industry. Approved by FDA and BfR as compatible for food contact, the coating helps protect and extend the shelf-life of foods such as snacks, confectionary, nutrition bars, meats, and dairy products as well as pharmaceuticals, the company said.
The company also noted that Melox NGen is a new iteration of Melodea’s biobased and renewable material MelOx for paper packaging but designed specifically for use on plastic.
