Product Description
SCLAIRFILM® A353/A354 are EVA modified LLDPE formulated to seal in lower temperatures and a wide sealing range. A353 has slightly lower slip levels than A354.

The low sealing range of A353/A354 combined with its outstanding physical properties makes it an ideal sealant film for meat and cheese packaging (Gas-flushed pouches) where lower seal temperatures are required to improve runability and increase processing speeds.

Key Features
  • High seal strength at lower temperatures
  • Outstanding hot tack strength
  • Excellent physical strength characteristics
  • Outstanding flex crack resistance

Can be supplied in widths from 254mm (10 inches) to 1524mm (60 inches) in the gauges shown below. Available corona treated on one side (treat side wound out) or non-treated. A353/A354 are available in both clear and white.
Please note: Additional gauges may also be available. Please speak with one of our Customer Service Representatives or your Account Manager for further information.
