Michem® Flex
Converter Ready Coatings™
If you’re a converter, you’ll find the high level of control, flexibility and ease-of-use of Michem® Flex coatings will allow you to quickly take advantage of new market and sales opportunities.
Our Michem® Flex family of water-based coatings is designed specifically for converters of flexible packaging substrates. It allows converters to take control of the coating process, and maintain flexible and lean inventory levels based on need.
Michem Flex coatings are self-priming and can be applied from a single in-house coating station. This eliminates the need to stock specialty grades of pre-primed or pre-coated films. Converters can now stock less expensive untreated film, and apply the coating on an as-needed, just-in-time basis. These fully formulated coatings are also effective at very thin coating thicknesses compared to traditional alternatives, further reducing material costs.
Converters can now process a wide variety of substrates and produce a range of specialty coated films. Our Michem Flex customers also enjoy trouble-free processing and fast packaging speeds, with minimal energy consumption.
Michem Flex coatings feature the following functions:
- Heat Seal
- Print Receptivity
- Moisture Barrier
- Extrusion Primers
Michem® Flex HS-100: Water based heat seal coating
