Film & Sheet Extrusion

Futeon™ PLA is an ideal material for film applications, either in its pure form or compounded.
Film & sheet extrusion

Innovative film solutions

Known for its strong properties and benefits, Futeon™ PLA is an ideal material for film & sheet applications, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional plastics. Whether it’s cast extrusion or blown film extrusion, such as bi-oriented extrusion, these processes are similar to traditional film extrusion, but with the added advantage of using a biopolymer derived from renewable resources.

Futeon™ PLA can also be blended with other materials and/or modified using different additives to adjust the properties of the final film.
