ICE® Coex Technology

For Unmatched Clarity, Formability & Barrier, Put Your Products on ICE

ICE® films are the ultimate fusion of barrier, performance and value. Produced using a breakthrough coextrusion process, ICE nylon films have become the industry benchmark for production efficiency, product protection and consumer appeal.

Whether you are seeking superior forming depth for bone-in meats, unsurpassed formed pocket memory for gas-flushed products or outstanding puncture resistance for high-pressure processing, there’s an ICE film for your application.

ICE HM “High Memory” Forming Films

The leading choice for forming webs in horizontal/form/fill/seal applications.

Innovations/AdvantagesApplications
  • Promotes high-speed machining for superior productivity
  • Cooler forming temps result in greater corner thickness vs. competitive film, allowing greater oxygen barrier and longer shelf life
  • Higher residual shrink and memory retention create attractive, wrinkle-free packages
  • Excellent puncture resistance protects against abuse, leaks
  • Maintains tight shape and clarity during high-pressure processing
  • Provides color fade protection to maintain premium product appeal
  • Cook-In Ham, Turkey
  • Frozen Fish and Seafood
  • HPP (High Pressure Pasteurization) Applications
  • Pouching/Master Bag Applications
  • Poultry
  • Processed Meats—Franks, Sausage, Lunchmeat, Bacon, Jerky
  • Steaks
  • String Cheese, Cheese Loaves
  • Vertical Applications—Meat/Chicken Slurry

ICE Non-Forming Films

A clear, high-barrier top web typically used with ICE forming films for horizontal thermoforming applications.

Innovations/AdvantagesApplications
  • Promotes high-speed machining for unmatched productivity
  • Reliable sealing characteristics for leak-free packages
  • Excellent puncture and abrasion resistance protects against abuse
  • Superior stiffness, lay-flat properties reduce curling for an attractive presentation
  • Maintains seal, fit, clarity during pasteurization and high-pressure processing
  • Provides color fade protection to maintain vibrant product appeal
  • Cook-In Ham, Turkey
  • Frozen Fish and Seafood
  • HPP (High Pressure Pasteurization) Applications
  • Pouching/Master Bag Applications
  • Poultry
  • Processed Meats—Franks, Sausage, Lunchmeat, Bacon, Jerky

Innovations/AdvantagesApplications
  • Extreme lay-flat resists curling for an exceptional appearance
  • Excellent corner thickness and formability on critical draw applications improve barrier and shelf life
  • Improved clarity and gloss enhance shelf appeal
  • Unsurpassed formed pocket memory allows films to hold their shape
  • Low oxygen transmission rate works well with gas-flush applications
  • May be used in 1-2 color print applications as a cost savings versus printed nutritional labels
  • Dry Sausage, Pepperoni
  • Jerky 
  • Hot Dogs/Franks
  • MAP Applications
  • Pegged Meat Items
  • Shingled Lunchmeats & Cheeses
  • HPP (High Pressure Pasteurization) Applications

ICE HS “High Strength” Films

Engineered for medium- to deep-draw applications such as bulky and bone-in products.

Innovations/AdvantagesApplications
  • Delivers more critical draw characteristics for high-profile applications
  • Offers potential source/cost reduction without sacrificing performance
  • Better corner thickness in deep-draw applications for reduced leakers
  • Better abrasion resistance stands up to abusive distribution
  • High barrier for long shelf life, fresh flavor
  • Improved slip characteristics allow ICE HS films to run on all HFFS equipment
  • Bone-In Meats
  • Bulk Franks
  • Bulk Sausage
