A new line of protective packaging materials combines the padding protection of cohesive foam with the tear-resistance of Valéron(R) Strength film. When laminated to Valéron film, Valéron film/foam products increase puncture- and tear-resistance properties while lowering abrasion levels inside the packaging, lending themselves to high-performance applications, the co. says. Three types of wrap are available to meet different degrees of package protection: Urban Wrap; Rural Wrap; and Metro Wrap. Urban Wrap has an outer white surface that resists abrasion and rough handling. Rural Wrap looks and feels like kraft paper but has more abrasion-resistance and less slip in handling. Metro Wrap is backed by a layer of Valéron Strength Film and has a highly reflective silver surface that acts as a radiant barrier against temperature extremes.
