Cosmo Films has expanded its flexible packaging portfolio with a new range of BOPP, CPP and BOPET-based films engineered specifically for pet food packaging. The introduction includes a new high heat-resistant TR-BOPP film along with advanced barrier and lidding films, strengthening the company’s commitment to delivering next-generation, food-safe packaging.
The new Bag-in-Box system consists of an inner plastic bag and an outer cardboard box, combining lightweight design with robustness and functionality. The cardboard box is fully recyclable, ensuring that the environmental impact is reduced across the entire product lifecycle - from production and logistics to end-of-life management. Compared to the previously used 20-liter canister, the new packaging requires 80% less plastic, while the waste volume is reduced twelvefold.
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed a new way to package photonic integrated circuits—tiny chips that convey information using light instead of electricity—so they can survive and operate in extreme environments, from scorchingly hot industrial settings to ultracold vacuum chambers and the depths of outer space.
