EXTRUDER OF THE MONTH

Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Brazil José Bosco Silveira 1976


Private (Owned by Tredegar Group of USA)


Brazil-based Terphane, founded in 1976, produces a wide range of flexible packaging polyester films – including metallized BOPET film. Its products include barrier films in up to four layers, and are used in a variety of applications such as peelable lidding, pouches and packaging of various foods – from coffee to dairy products. In addition, industrial applications include self-adhesive labels, adhesive tape and release agents.


Product lines:


Terphane offers a range of BOPET products. Its sealable polyester films are used in a variety of lidding applications – as either ‘easy open’, lock seal (permanent sealing) or resealable. They can be engineered to adhere to multiple resins, including PVC and PLA, and can be Corona-treated on one side for printing. Barrier film is typically metallized, but Terphane also offers transparent barrier film, which uses coated PVdC. Surfaces can be modified in several ways: to produce a matte finish, for superior appearance; or to reduce coefficient of friction, which is typically applied to pouches. The company recently released its EcoPhane line of films – which incorporate at least 35% recycled PET – including a biodegradable version.


Factory locations:


The company’s main plant in Cabo de Santo Agostinho has a capacity of around 65,000 tonnes/year of film products, which includes metallised film. The plant recently ordered a fourth metallizer from Bobst, which will be installed in 2022. Terphane’s second plant – in Bloomfield, NY in the USA – began operations in 1988.
