The advanced OTR, WVTR and CO2TR Barrier Calculators with several features where you can select between different geometries; film, cup, bottle and cuboid. This enables you to simulate your target package design. The calculating models gives you estimates of the O2 (oxygen), Water Vapour and CO2 Transmission Rate of various plastics packaging material like PP, PE, PET, PA and EVOH.
Food and food safety are high on the agenda, and for food packaging more knowledge about migrating chemical substances, both intentionally added (IAS) and non-intentionally added (NIAS) is needed.
We evaluate the recycled materials in various end applications. One important segment is caps for household chemicals, cosmetics and personal care containers.
Norner is engaged in several projects for development of monomaterial PE laminates for food and non-food packaging applications.
The global interest in making polymers from carbon dioxide (CO2) is huge due to the utilisation of a waste product that is harming the climate.
We strengthen our footprint of polymer R&D services.
Norner’s barrier calculator has become a popular tool among professionals in the packaging industry.
