Legal Statement

This product is not intended for or supported for use in pharmaceutical or medical applications requiring compliance with EU or US Pharmacopeia.

Processing Statement

  • AOH is designed for packaging dry products such as dried fruits, nuts and crackers that require an oxygen barrier.
  • The oxygen barrier properties of the PVOH coating will be reduced by the presence of moisture. For products containing high moisture content, thorough testing should be undertaken to ensure that the desired results are achieved.
  • AOH is designed for use as the outer web of a lamination. In lamination to a hermetic sealant web, AOH is ideal for gas-flush applicatiications.
  • The PVOH surface is suitable for water-based or solvent-based printing and adhesive laminations. Contact ink and adhesive manufacturers for specific recommendations with this surface.
  • The PVOH surface should be primed before extrusion lamination.
