Reliable additions to processes
You want to add properties to plastic and paper, and you can do this with additives. Depending on the end product and the production process, there are many possibilities. At Van Meeuwen Additives, it’s all about commitment and knowledge that works. We really immerse ourselves in your process, think along with you, and do what is necessary to arrive at a suitable solution. We are passionate about our profession and attentive to current developments. That inspires confidence, and you can build on that.
Check out the various solutions we offer for sheet, film, and paper below. We excel at the details that make the difference and actively share our knowledge to move forward together. Whether it concerns anti-block, anti-fog, anti-static, or paper barriers, we combine technical depth with practical applicability. This is how we help our customers move forward: clearly, honestly, and with personal contact.
From insight to impact
We believe that the best solutions arise from collaboration. That is why we immerse ourselves in the customer’s process, ask questions, and work together to identify what really matters. What is the goal, where is the bottleneck, and what is needed to improve processes? This allows us to arrive at solutions that are not only technically sound, but also practical.
We help you figure out what works best for your situation. Sometimes that means a quick fix, other times it takes a bit more coordination or testing. Either way, we’re right there with you, ready to share our knowledge, commitment, and short lines of communication. For us, that’s what collaboration is all about.
Anti-block
In an automated filling line, everything must run smoothly. You don’t want packaging that sticks together. Our food-safe functional additives, such as anti-block agents, ensure that food containers, such as plastic cups, containers, and trays, separate effortlessly. Reliable, practical, and precisely tailored to your process so that every package is in the right place at the right time. Because when it really has to work, every detail counts in a high-speed process line.
Anti-fog
Fogged packaging in the supermarket, where the product is barely visible, is difficult to sell. This is especially true for fresh products such as lettuce, vegetables, or mushrooms. You want the contents to remain visible: fresh, crisp, and appealing. Our crystal-clear, food-safe functional additives such as anti-fog prevent condensation and ensure a clear, visible presentation, from the filling line to the refrigerated shelf. Practical, reliable, and precisely tailored to your application.
Anti-static
Static charge is not only a nuisance during the printing of packaging, an anti-static agent also prevents static charge on packaging. In production, it causes quality problems; for consumers, it causes annoyance when packaging sticks together or attracts unwanted dust. With our food-safe anti-static additives, you prevent static charging and promote controlled discharge. For a smooth-running process and a better user experience. Because details make the difference.
Paper Barriers
The demand for plastic-free and recyclable packaging is growing, and paper packaging plays an important role in this. But paper alone does not always offer the desired protection that is needed. Our functional paper barrier additives give paper exactly that extra functionality: water-repellent, grease-resistant, or oxygen barriers, without compromising recyclability. We immerse ourselves in your challenge and offer customized solutions that suit your product and process. In this way, we help make packaging more sustainable without compromising on performance.
Food packaging requires smart functionalities. Because if food packaging fogs up, is static, or the trays stick together, not only does the packaging process stagnate, but so does the quality and experience of the product. In the food processing industry, we provide well-thought-out solutions with anti-fog, anti-block, anti-static, and paper barrier additives—tailored to your process. Always with customization, commitment, and that extra step. Because only when everything is right are we satisfied.
