Dry Foods

Crackers, biscuits, cereals and bakery goods become soggy in moist environments, but a smart packaging design can keep these products fresh longer. From dry food applications that require barrier to moisture to other applications having stringent flavor and odor requirements, The Dow Chemical Company (Dow) has a broad selection of plastics from which to choose.

For dry foods packaging, Dow's resins can optimize your package design and performance, providing the optimal combination of moisture barrier, toughness, and sealability. Dow's diverse offering of resins for dry food packaging includes:

  • High barrier, multi-functional resins such as Saran™ resins.
  • Performance plastomers and elastomers such as AFFINITY™ polyolefin plastomer and VERSIFY™ plastomers and elastomers providing outstanding seal performance.
  • Polyethylene resins such as ATTANE™ ULDPE resins, DOWLEX™ polyethylene resins, and ELITE™ enhanced polyethylene resins to provide toughness and sealability.
  • HDPE resins for outstanding moisture barrier.
  • DOW Polypropylene resins and INSPIRE™ performance polymers providing stiffness.
