EVOH All-Plastics-Laminate

Compare the Barrier Properties

The all-plastics EVOH laminate tube has become a desirable option for manypersonal care products. A typical construction for such an application would be white PE-film outer layer, PEtie layer, EVOH barrier layer, PE-tie layer, and PE-film inner layer. Because the outer layer of the laminate is white PE-film, it can be surface printed with brilliant colors and graphics by dry offset or flexographic methods.
