The Curl That
Haunted Meat Sticks
For years, meat stick producers have battled the same frustrating problem: curl. Without the right thermoforming film, products can twist, bow, and bend through production and onto the shelf, hurting consistency, packaging performance, and overall shelf appeal. CurlGuard changes that by preventing curl in meat sticks and similar thermoformed products, helping them stay straight, uniform, and shelf-ready for a better-looking product, and packaging that works with your process.
The New Look
CurlGuard is a coextruded, high-barrier thermoforming film incorporating a special skin layer, polyamide, EVOH, and advanced polyethylene structures. It delivers excellent oxygen and aroma barrier, high puncture resistance, and consistent peelable seal performance while improving the shelf appeal of your packaging.
CurlGuard offers superior toughness, thermal stability, high gloss, and low haze, with reliable processability on converting and thermoforming equipment.
Suitable for ambient, refrigerated, and frozen applications.
