The Pulmuone Company was named a Gold Award winner in the 28th DuPont Awards for Packaging Innovation for the development of a commercial, water-based adhesive for retortable pouches, a first-known application in the industry. Honored for excellence in Technological Advancement and Responsible Packaging, they overcame a temperature limit of 266 degrees Fahrenheit for water-based adhesive for retort. This improves packaging material safety by reducing organic solvents in expanded applications. A significant advancement, particularly for today’s discerning consumers, it assuages users who are concerned about possible organic material extraction at the high temperature procedure required for packaging retort products. The Pulmuone Company also displayed their commitment to sustainability by not only reducing organic solvents but also cutting carbon dioxide emissions.
