Flextrus AirLite^®

The expanded lightweight champion saves more.

You can use Flextrus AirLite^® to reduce your pack weights by more than 30%, compared to traditional alternatives — all without compromising quality or performance. Flextrus AirLite^® is offered with recycled PET (rPET) and manufactured in an optimal process for minimised use of resources. Low density, chlorine-free and environmentally sound, Flextrus AirLite^® offers high processing on existing thermoforming lines (formability, cutting) without the need for new investments. The expanded material delviers a soft look and feel in enabling attractive product presentations. Flextrus offer both mono PET versions as well as PE-sealing alternatives.

Like all Flextrus food packaging, Flextrus AirLite^® is approved for food contact. Flextrus is ready to guide you in matching the right product to meet your specific demands.
