DuPont develops solutions to prolong shelf life

This is the advantage of the latest innovation from DuPont Teijin Films: a transparent membrane that can be completely removed from the container it is on and then replaced again.

“We’ve developed a reusable sheet designed to cover plastic punnets, specially created to protect the shelf life of ready-to-eat fresh produce such as salads and chopped fruits,” said manager Steven Davies.

The film that covers DuPont fruit packaging provides a unique combination of electrical, thermal, chemical and mechanical properties that can withstand extreme temperatures and other tough environments for a multitude of applications and processing techniques. Greater durability, protection, strength and longer life, as well as environmental sustainability, are just some of the benefits provided by solutions from DuPont Teijin Films.
