Background

Decarbonization efforts and ESG investment are accelerating, and packaging suppliers are focused on reducing their environmental impact by developing plant-derived, bio-degradable plastic products. DNP offers Eco-Friendly Packaging*1, including highly recyclable mono-materials, and by using paper instead of petroleum-derived plastic film, the new product will reduce CO2 emissions and contribute to the realization of a recycling-oriented society.

Features

  • Achieving high barrier properties in paper
    DNP has been leveraging its proprietary converting technology*2 to integrate barrier properties in paper materials. Special paper is not necessary and general craft paper can be used. We have also improved resistance to bending and minimized the impairment of barrier properties following bending.
  • Improving recyclability and conductivity
    No metal materials are used in the high barrier coating layer, which is composed of paper mono-material that enhances recyclability. This high barrier paper consists of a thin layer of transparent material that does not affect the transmission of radio waves, and can be used with RFID applications.
  • Its heat-sealability will be useful for packaging applications
    The new product also maintains a heat-seal layer that can be sealed by heat welding.

Going forward

We aim to commercialize the monomaterial sheet for packaging materials used with food, cosmetics, and medical products, and expand our line-up of enhanced barrier properties.

Americhem Launches nDryve™: PFAS-Free In-Melt Technology Platform for Functional Fibers1.4.2026 13:00:00 CEST | Press release

Americhem, Inc., a global polymer solutions provider, today announced the launch of nDryve™, a PFAS-free, in-melt surface-modifying technology platform designed to deliver durable multi-fluid repellency against alcohol and other low-surface-energy fluids in fiber systems. As global regulations accelerate the phase-out of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), manufacturers are under increasing pressure to maintain barrier performance without fluorinated chemistries. nDryve™ was developed to address this shift, offering a PFAS-free, in-melt alternative to conventional surface applied treatments. Engineered for Performance Without PFAS Often referred to as “forever chemicals,” PFAS have come under heightened regulatory scrutiny due to their persistence and potential environmental and health impacts. nDryve™ integrates directly into the polymer during melt processing, embedding surface-modifying functionality within the fiber matrix rather than relying on removable finishes.
