Futerro® Extrusion

About
Futerro® PLA polymer extrusion grade is a thermoplastic resin derived from annually renewable resources and is specifically designed for extrusion & thermoforming applications as, dairy containers, food service ware, transparent food containers, blister packaging, cold drink cups. Candy twist wrap, salad and Vegetable bags, window Envelope film, lidding film – Label film, Injection Stretch Blow Molded, or ISBM Bottles for 1:2 stage operations. Ideal for applications such as, Fresh Dairy, Edible Oils, Fresh Water Futerro® PLA polymer is a clear extrusion sheet grade and is easily processed on conventional extrusion and thermoforming equipment. The material is stable in the molten state, provided that the drying procedures are followed.&&
