[**ExxonMobil**](https://corporate.exxonmobil.com/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) **and** [**Malpack**](https://www.trioworld.ca/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) **have teamed up to launch a high-performance pre-stretch film using ExxonMobil’s Signature Polymers, said to have high tenacity, holding force and stability while maintaining production efficiency.**

ExxonMobil recently introduced its Signature Polymers brand - consisting of its polyolefin products - with Exceed Flow m 1716 metallocene polyethylene, part of the portfolio, utilized for the partnership. Incorporated as a discrete layer in a nine-layer film structure, the resin apparently eliminated the need for blending, simplifying operations and delivering excellent processing performance even on wide (4.5-meter) extrusion lines.

The companies say that key performance features of the new film include consistent load stability across all pre-stretch levels, helping to ensure secure pallet containment during transport and storage; efficient processing on wide lines with stable throughput that supports large-scale film production; and high downgauging potential, reportedly enabling thinner film designs that maintain performance while using less material, contributing to cost savings.

In related news, [Berry Global](https://www.berryglobal.com/en/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io)’s flexible films division recently [unveiled](https://packagingeurope.com/news/berry-global-launches-new-stretch-film-with-30-pcr-content/12481.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) its Bontite Sustane Stretch Film with 30% post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, said to be recyclable post-use where PE film collections exist. Berry says the new film provides strength, puncture resistance and load stability for industries including logistics, food and beverage, construction, retail, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and e-commerce.

[ULMA Packaging](https://www.ulmapackaging.com/en?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) announced its Width-Flex [technology](https://packagingeurope.com/news/new-thermoforming-technology-said-to-reduce-film-waste-by-up-to-80/12464.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) for thermoforming machines in February, said to reduce film waste by up to 80%, improve efficiency and minimize operational downtime. In addition, Width-Flex’s motorized bottom web width adjustment system is said to enable ‘seamless changes’ in reel width.
