The HS-Group HP-MET vacuum web coating system is the roll-to-roll metallization solution for packaging with very good barrier properties.
Highest productivity in an industry with low margins, combined with excellent product properties, is the answer to the challenges of tomorrow. Vacuum coating machines for the deposition of aluminum and plasma-reactive deposition of aluminum oxide on flexible materials such as CPP, BOPP, and PET.
Barrier performance, durability, and long-term stability of the refined packaging materials are optimized with plasma treatment to achieve even better permeation values.
Protection and durability of sensitive contents are becoming increasingly important in modern packaging. A high diffusion barrier to protect the contents from various external influences, e.g., oxygen and water vapor, is a crucial criterion in food packaging and other industries.
The demand for thin-film packaging combined with good barrier properties has always been predicted in the past and has been consistently confirmed in recent years.
This trend is expected to lead to correspondingly large growth potential, especially due to the emerging middle class in densely populated countries.
