Metalized Bags, Pouches & Packaging (CALPAC 1500)

CALPAC 1500 is one of the best dry packaging options on the market. It protects moisture-sensitive products using a vacuum seal. Caltex Plastics has CALPAC 1500 puncture-resistant packaging for many industries, offering packaging materials that help preserve the product’s physical and electrical integrity.

Features of CALPAC 1500 Vacuum Packaging

CALPAC 1500 is a strong and abrasion-resistant packaging material with these features:

Light protection: Some products experience quality degradation or develop impurities when exposed to sunlight or artificial light. CALPAC 1500 prevents light sources from interacting with the product.
Oxygen protection: Oxygen-sensitive products can degrade in quality if they interact with air. The oxygen barrier in CALPAC 1500 packaging limits permeation.
Odor barrier: Products with a distinct scent need to maintain it without influence from other odors. CALPAC 1500 keeps essential aromas inside and other odors outside the bag.
Vacuum sealing: Vacuum packaging removes all the air from the package before sealing. Removing the oxygen pulls the packaging material close to the product for space efficiency.
Puncture resistance: This material has a high degree of puncture resistance to prevent foreign objects from protruding into the bag.
Low moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR): CALPAC 1500 is a low MVTR packaging, so it keeps moisture out of the bag.
