JPFL Films Becomes India's First to Launch BOPA Nylon Packaging Films

JPFL Films Private Limited, a subsidiary of India's largest flexible packaging company, Jindal Poly Films Ltd. (JPFL), has become the first to introduce Biaxially Oriented Polyamide (BOPA) Nylon films in India. JPFL has put in an overall capital of Rs. 120 crore into a contemporary, automated, and programmable facility in Nashik.

New product launches corroborate the company's vision to infuse technological advancement with innovations in production processes, enhancing quality, reducing costs, and, consequently, achieving heightened customer satisfaction. This is yet another big investment that underscores the company's dedication to the Indian market.

Commenting on the launch, Dr. Mahesh N. Gopalasamudram, Deputy CEO (Growth Division), JPFL Films said, "With the launch of BOPA Nylon Films, JPFL Films Pvt. Ltd. becomes the first company in the Indian market to introduce this innovation. This unique product has enhanced mechanical properties and aroma barrier, which will help us serve solutions in pharma, medical, FMCG, and food applications. Highlighting that until recently, a hundred percent of these films were imported will be an important note."

One of the other main aspects of this distinct offer is provided by isotropy (the set of characteristics or properties being the same in all directions) that has been produced through an exclusive Japanese double-bubble film technology promising dimensional stability, puncture resistance, and homogeneity in terms of width and length. Furthermore, this film is suitable for high-speed printing and provides a barrier to aroma and gases.

“BOPA films are also produced by our group company Jindal Nylon films in Italy. This experience will also help us in serving the Indian customers and bringing global innovation locally,” Dr. Gopalasamudram added.
