PLIANT Offers Lower Cost Film Alternative for Food Packaging



Schaumburg, IL - November 11, 2008 - PLIANT Corporation introduces new Revolution® meat and produce wrapping films for improved yield and higher performance at lower costs. With recent economic conditions affecting supply prices, packagers can now counter these increases and replace their current packaging with a remarkable new substitute.

Revolution evolved from the combination of PLIANT's unique global PVC production capabilities and 50 years of expertise in the packaging film industry. Drawing on its double-extrusion process and proprietary resin formulating capabilities, PLIANT developed this thinner gauge, high performance film. Utilizing the Revolution product can lower packaging expenses, while maintaining outstanding performance characteristics for both in-store manual wrap stations and high-speed automation.

Bob Maltarich, Sr. VP and General Manager of PLIANT's global PVC business, states "PLIANT's Revolution product offering has the capability to offset the recent cost increases while offering a sustainability proposition of less film, less packaging and less waste."
