In this business we are known for our durable resins that are flexible enough to work with a wide range of products. At the same time, they enable the high line speeds that are so important to manufacturers. From caps and closures to aerosols, and from tubes to both two-piece cans and three-piece cans, our resins for white base coat and overprint varnish can do the job.
BPA-NI (bisphenol non-intent)? Thanks to our innovation, yes we can!
Here at Covestro, innovation is something that is happening every day, sometimes quietly in the background – but always with our customers.One great example is our work in developing tailor-made BPA-NI products that meet the increasingly tight regulations surrounding metal applications. Our polyester range developed for food contact is able to replace epoxy products containing BPA.
Our products are used in gold, clear and white internals for all kinds of cans and closures. A lot of development is linked to various regulatory issues. For example, requests for the removal of materials like naphthalene and tin is increasing. We are your partner to help you stay one step ahead of up-coming regulations.
