Water-based Latiseal® B7707AR for recycled PET was developed and thoroughly tested by Henkel on multiple RPET stocks under strict testing conditions and has proven to outperform alternatives in the marketplace.  Benefits include: 

• Excellent adhesion to recycled polyester blisters
• Options for offset, flexographic and roll coat application
• Versatility enabling application off-line, if desired
• 100 percent VOC-free
• Approved for indirect food contact under FDA regulation 175.105
• Low seal temperature, resulting in reduced energy consumption
• Lower coating weights, resulting in reduced transportation costs and landfill waste
• In-line wet trappable (wet inks)
• High degree of clarity with no milking of dark inks
• High-gloss/non-blocking

Another addition to the Latiseal® water-based line is B7780AR for regular PET.  This product is specially formulated for in-line applications over wet inks.  Suitable for all blister packaging coating equipment, Latiseal® B7780AR eliminates two-step processes, improves production up-time, and reduces operational costs.

Henkel is a market leader in coatings for blister packaging.  The Henkel line of Latiseal® visual carded packaging products covers the gamut of skin and blister packs, and Henkel’s water-based heatseals positively impact quality, profitability, and the environment.
