Reflecting the trend toward multi-functionality and food safety, Sealstrip Corp., Gilbertsville, PA, recently introduced a series of tapes that provide both barrier and FDA compliance. "In regard to sustainability, traditional reseal features add more weight to the package, require more energy to produce and affect line efficiency. With Sealstrip's tapes, very little weight is added, very little energy is used to apply the feature, and line speeds are unaffected," says Jo Anne Forman, director of product development.
