Today – we custom make packaging – conventional Plastic Bags and our specialty – the conical shaped – Sleeve Package, Sheets and Rolls of Film and all of them are able to have our special Micro-Perforation as made with Hot Needles. We can put almost any number of holes per square inch on custom basis. Micro-Perforations run in bands measuring in 5 cm increments along the machine fed direction of the plastic film being used.

There are many applications for Micro-Perforated films.

Some Commercial Applications:

  • Filters
  • Curing Cover – allows curing (ventilation) while keeping a layer of protection
  • Composting Films
  • Algae Retardant Films

Some Food Applications:

Ventilation for perishable Food Products:

  • Popularly used for French Style Breads and baked breads and rolls others that require a hard crust but soft interior
  • Produce and Vegetable Bags
  • Boil in a Bag – Allows water to pass through while keeping food product together in the bag

A‑ROO Company specializes in the conical shape – it is our ‘Signature-Packaging;’ and we have the most experience and advanced technology for making plastic packaging for Herbs in different sizes, tapers, thicknesses and with or without Flexographic (up to 6-Colors) or Rotogravure Printing (up to 10-Colors) specifically for food and food products.

Another note about ‘ventilation’ in Bags, Sleeves, Sheets and Film Rolls

Ventilation – we offer full and partial Vent Holes, Hot-Needle Micro-Perforations and shaped cuts, or holes in any configuration required. This feature adds the value of allowing for a proper transmission of air and water; helping keep product protected but allows for ‘breathing.’

Yes we can -
We can easily Micro-Perforate any PE or PP based plastic films using EPI® TDPA® Addititve – A‑ROO Company is also a brand partner and licensee for EPI Environmental Products Inc., which is a TDPA® additive product to plastic films that make them degrade over time while maintaining virtually all of the normal characteristics of the particular plastic film during packing and use.
