Stretch films manufactured with Clearflex H&T CLH 196 BCA have outstanding fracture mechanical properties, mainly Elmendorf tear strength along machine direction (MD) and puncture resistance. Moreover, the holding force is the key property of these films when used in automatic wrapping machines. Clearflex H&T CLH 196 BCA is recommended for production of super-power stretch films. Its properties, especially in terms of holding force and puncture resistance, make Clearflex H&T CLH 196 BCA the ideal choice for packaging goods of irregular shape and for applications requiring a superior mechanical strength.

Sustainability
The “bio circular attributed” product Clearflex H&T CLH 196 BCA is a highly sustainable LLDPE produced using bionafta from renewable raw materials together with traditional raw materials. In order to attribute the sustainable feedstock component to the final product, Versalis applies the Mass Balance approach, a recognized methodology that allows to trace the flow of materials along the value chain and to assign the sustainability characteristic of the raw material to the final product on a documentary basis. Clearflex H&T CLH 196 BCA provides the same chemical composition and physical-mechanical performance of the traditional grade, in addition is accompanied by a sustainability declaration that certifies the share of bio attributed product. It is a linear low-density polyethylene, hexene comonomer (C6-LLDPE), added with antioxidants and suitable for cast film technology. The production of Clearflex H&T CLH 196 BCA allows to contribute to the circular economy, since the bionafta used derives from waste from industrial processing of organic substances (e.g. used cooking oils). Clearflex H&T CLH 196 BCA will be bio circular attributed for 85%. The exact amount of “bio circular attributed” product will be reported in the sustainability certificate issued upon the delivery of the product.
