In the opening ceremony held in the morning of April 21st, 2014, Mr. Qian Guijing, the vice
chairman of China National Light Industry Council and the chairman of the board of directors of
CPPIA has analyzed the industry situation and the expressed his expectation regarding the film
sector in the opening speech.
2013 is a difficult year for the plastic processing sector, especially for the small and
medium-sized plastic processing enterprises.According to the National Bureau of Statistics, there are 13699 plastics processing enterprises
above designated size in 2013 with a total output of 61.8866 million tons, attaining a year-on-year
growth of 8.02%,which is lower than the same figure of the last year, 8.99%.
The 13699 plastics processing enterprises above designated size in 2013 have realized profit of
112.318 billion RMB,attaining a year-on-year growth of 16.45%.
According to the customs statistics, the exports of plastic products amounted to 15.08 million
tons, representing year-on-year growth of 5.88%, the growth rate is slowing down.
In 2013,the output of plastics film manufactured by industrial enterprises above designated
size totals up 10.8935 milliom tons,attaining a year-on-year growth of 7.61%. However, the growth
rate has declined 1.72% over the previous year, which is resulted by multi factors: on the one hand,
the exports of commercials has severely decreased due to the sluggish global economy, which has
influenced the consumption of plastics packaging too; on the other hand, the sluggish domestic
economic situation has also decreased the demand for plastics products.
In 2013, the output of plastic film accounts for 17.6% of the output of the whole plastics
products.
However, we should also pay attention to the problems concerning the long-term healthy
development of film industry: severe oversupply, the homogeneity of the film from different
enterprises, weak innovation ability, low proportion of high-end and functional film, especially for
the biaxially-oriented film, cast film and metallized film. The sustainable healthy development of
film sector will be discounted if the insiders could not solve the above problems.
(1) We should develop film species towards the target of “functionalization”
Currently, the film has been widely applied as packaging material. However, we should
foresee the huge potential of film for industrial purpose such as capacitor film, separator film,
optical film and solar energy back panel. The market belongs to those who have forethought.
Conference Express Biaxially-oriented Film June 2014

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has guided the development of 23
species of key functional film including optical film, LIB separator film, encapsulation film,
ion-exchange membrane, diffusion dialysis membrane, PET film for photovoltaic, diffusion barrier,
auto glass pasting film, flexible electric
conduction transparent film, electromagnetic
shielding film, window film, decoration film,
solar battery backsheet, reverse osmosis
membrane, flexible organic polymer film in the
“Twelfth Five Year Plan” Concerning New
Material Industry issued in April 2014. Those
key film are important for the development of
electronics, optical, high barrier, the infiltration
and filter etc.
The Ministry of Science and Technology
has launched the “Twelfth Five Year Plan”
Concerning the High-performance Film
Material Technology Development and listed
water treatment membrane, battery separator film for solar energy, flat panel display, film for
semiconductor and microelectronics as the key supportive projects in the period of Twelfth Five
Year Plan.
The oversupply of biaxially-oriented film is composed of the advanced output capacity, not the
outdated capacity, due to the unwisely adjustment of the entrepreneurs and the inability of
innovation.
To redress the situation, the entrepreneurs should adjust the film structure and strengthen the
development of packaging and printing film, substrate film for adhesive tape, cigarettes film, heat
sealing film, decorative film, matte film, and pearl film.
The production of functional film is an integration of machinery, raw materials, technical
process, formulation and process control, which needs the cooperation of different organizations.
I hope that the BOPP Film Professional Committee, the BOPET Film Professional Committee,
Cast Film Professional Committee, Metallized Film Professional Committee, Degradable Plastics
Professional Committee, Packaging-purposed Blowing Film Professional Committee of CPPIA
could play the role of platform and coordinate the entrepreneurs to develop the innovative species.
The plastics processing industry has encountered the adjustment phase and is facing severe
challenge.

Annual Assembly of BOPET Professional Committee
of CPPIA Closed in 2014
The annual assembly of BOPET Professional Committee of China Plastics Processing Industry
Association (CPPIA) convened from March 5th to March 6th 2014 in Shanghai. More than 80
delegates from 42 enterprises have attended this event.
Mr. Xu Zhiqiang, the chairman of BOPET Professional Committee has presided over this
assembly. Firstly he has greeted the delegates from nine new comers: Hefei lucky Science &
Technology Industry Co. Ltd., Zhangjiagang Kangde Xin Photoelectric Materials Co., Ltd., Jiangsu
Xingye Juhua Co., Ltd.(Sangfangxiang), Baihong Industrial Holding Co., Ltd., Shandong Sonton
Group Co., Ltd., Qingzhou Fuxiang Plastics Co., Ltd., Shandong Shouguang Jianyuanchun Co., Ltd,
Poly Plastic Masterbach (Suzhou) Co., Ltd, Yixing Guanghui Package Co., Ltd.
Mr. Cao Jian, the vice-director of CPPIA has reviewed the operation situation of plastics
industry in 2013. He has urged the enterprises to actively transform their mode of operation or
adjust products structure. He has reminded the entrepreneurs that the current excess production
capacity is only the surplus of low-end and low-level products. He has confirmed the enterprises’
efforts paid on the adjustment of product structure, differentiation development of international
anti-dumping and the expansion of the international market.
Mr. Xu Zhiqiang, the director of BOPET Film Professional Committee of CPPIA has reviewed
the work of BOPET Film Professional Committee in 2013 and introduced the work program of
BOPET Film Professional Committee in 2014.
The secretariat has analyzed the market situation at home and abroad after the sunset review.
As for the standards management, the secretariat of BOPET Film Professional Committee will
actively cooperate with China Plastics Processing Industry Association and the enterprises to boost
the development of standards.
According to Mr. Zhang Shaohua, the director of board of Hangzhou Dahua Plastics Industry
Co., Ltd., Hangzhou Dahua has persisted in independent technical innovation and maintained
annual increase of output value and profit with dozens of products of moderate output since its
establishment in 1987. Zhang Shaohua has attributed the success of Dahua to appropriate product
positioning, suitable resource allocation, effective incentive mechanism and continuous innovation
practice.
Concerning the large-scale development strategy and differentiation strategy, Mr. Wu Peifu,
the director of board of Shuangxing introduced the eight-year plan to attract associated technical
Biaxially-oriented Film June 2014 Conference Express
- 6 -
talents for the development of products and marketing strategy. At present, Shuangxing boasts 16
production lines. In 2013, Shuangxing has successfully sold 240 ktons film including ultra-thin film,
thermo sealable film, electricity conductive film, optical film and smart window film etc.
Mr. Su Zhigang, the general managr of Tianjin Wanhua Co., Ltd. has emphasized that the
enterprises should not seize the market share at the expense of the cash flow. To broaden sources of
income is more important than to decrease expenditure. The sheer decrease of expenditure is a dead
end street. Only innovation could lead the enterprises to a bright future.
According the Mr. Wu Tingxiao, the vice general-manager of Ningbo Jinyuan Group, Jinyuan
is under severe pressure right now because of insufficient technical reserve and the under estimation
of intense competition. He lamented that in 2013, Chinese enterprises have invested in a dozen of
film production lines with billions of RMB. However, the total profit of tens of BOPET film is less
than that of the one ton of chemical film produced by DuPont.
The costly machine operates in deficit, consuming lots of energy and producing environmental
pollution. When the situation turns optimistic in the future, the equipment could not run smoothly,
and the enterprises must spend lots of money to buy equipment parts from overseas producers.
He deems that the consumption of direct melting method is far more than the saving of
motor electricity due to the shortages such as the non-recyclable two cutting edges of film, the
single species of film and the continuous production. He also urges the enterprises to abide by
healthy competition and abandon the low-price competition strategy. It’s suggestible that all the
insiders to research the new market share in the fields of printing, metallizing, packaging and tapes.
Shandong Sonton Group Co., Ltd. is established in Aug. 2011. Mr. Zhou Bingyang, the
general manager introduced that in 2013, Sonton has bought 2 optical film manufacturing lines with
2 billion RMB.
In the afternoon, Dr. Yang Youcai of Qingdao Zhong Ke Hao New Material Science &
Technology Co., Ltd. has delivered the report Research on the High Performance of BOPET Film.
Dr. Zhang Yan, the general manager of Ningbo Jizhi New Materials Co., Ltd. has delivered the
report The Optical Film for LCD Display Backlight. Ningbo Jizhi New Materials Co., Ltd. was
established in 2007. Under the leadership of Zhang Yan, the company has completed the factory
decoration, equipment installation, trial production and mass production within one year. The
optical diffusion film, brightness-enhancement film and reflection film produced by Ningbo Jizhi
New Materials Co., Ltd. have entered the procurement catalogue of SAMSUNG and LG.
According to the media statistics,the pricing the BOPET film recently is 2000RMB per ton
lower than that of the same season of last year resulting from the oversurplus.
It’s reported that the BOPET film capacity will still increase in 2014.

Riots Halt Vietnam Operations of Haitian and Formosa
VIETNAM (May 19,2014) — Vietnamese factories of Formosa Plastics and injection moulding
machine maker Haitian International Holdings both suspended operations last week following
widespread anti-Chinese rioting that included mob assaults on Formosa factories.
Two people died and more than 100 were injured in several days of rioting, Vietnam's
government said 17 May in its first official accounting of the violence, according to The New York
Times and other Western media.
There were widespread reports of riots involving thousands of people, with hundreds of arrests,
and damage and fires at foreign-owned factories in the south and central parts of Vietnam. The
violence began as protests connected to a maritime boundary and oil drilling dispute between the
two countries.
Taiwan’s Formosa, which has several facilities in Vietnam, said in a May 14 statement that a
mob of 300 people broke into a campus in Dong Nai province that produced biaxially oriented
polypropylene and fibres, where they looted and caused other damage.
Formosa said in a May 15 statement that one person died from heat stroke during a riot on the
afternoon of May 14 at a separate company facility, a steel manufacturing plant in Ha Tinh province,
and 90 people were injured.
Adding to the confusion on the ground, Formosa said the Vietnamese rioters at the steel plant
are actually employees of a Chinese contractor working on the site. It added that none of its
Taiwanese or Vietnamese staff were attacked and that the mob left at about midnight, about two
hours after the head of the Ha Tinh province arrived to help control the situation.
Haitian said in a May 16 statement that it stopped operations at its factory in Binh Duong, near
Ho Chi Minh City, on May 14 out of concern for safety of its staff.
It said it had no reports of injury or deaths among its staff or any material damage to its factory,
where the company builds injection moulding machines.
Haitian, based in Ningbo, China, said the Binh Duong factory accounted for less than 1 percent
of its total output in 2013, suggesting that any effect on the company’s overall business would be
minimal.
Kaohsiung, Taiwan-based Formosa said managers at the Dong Nai facility called police at
around 10:30 p.m. May 13, and the county chief arrived with his team, but they had little impact on
stopping the mob from entering the industrial park. Rioters did not leave until about 4 a.m., so
damage was still being assessed.
News in Asia Biaxially-oriented Film June 2014

Formosa said it deeply regrets the incident and said the foreign-owned factories being targeted
by rioters have no connection to the political dispute over maritime boundaries between China and
Vietnam.
It said it also regrets the inability of the
Vietnamese government to handle riots and
protect foreign investment. The company said it
believes foreign investors will have doubts
about the security in Vietnam, and will step
back on new investments. It urged Taiwan’s
government to pressure Vietnam to adopt
effective protection measures.
A report from Reuters news agency said
that “the brunt [of the damage] appears to have
been borne by Taiwanese companies in the
zones… as rioters mistook the firms to be
Chinese-owned.”
The New York Times quoted media in
South Korea stating that 50 Korean companies also were damaged during the rioting. Reuters
quoted a spokesman for exporter Li & Fung, which supplies toys, clothing and other consumer
products to US retailers, as saying some of its suppliers in Vietnam halted production as a
precautionary measure.
The Dong Nai site is a large production base for Formosa.
The company has invested $1 billion there thus far, setting up yarn, polyester fibre and BOPP
production, and it announced late last year it was spending another $500 million, including $100
million for a 200,000-metric-ton-per-year polystyrene factory.
Formosa is currently Vietnam’s largest foreign-invested company, according to an English
language website of the Communist Party in Dong Nai.
A series of demonstrations escalated in Vietnam in recent days, after China moved an oil
drilling rig into waters claimed by both countries. Coast guard vessels from the two nations used
water cannons and tried ramming each other’s vessels to disrupt operations.
Press reports said foreign factories were also damaged at Singaporean-owned industrial parks
in Vietnam.
To avoid a worse situation, a raw material supplier from Southeast Asia plans to ship the raw
materials to other market.

Arle Capital Acquires BOPP-film Maker Innovia Group
UK (May 2, 2014) — Arle Capital (Arle) has acquired the Innovia Group from the Candover 2001
Fund, for €498 million, with funds raised from a syndicate of new investors. This means ownership
remains with funds managed by the same international private-equity company.
David Beeby, CEO, Innovia Group, says, “We are delighted that we will be partnering again
with Arle who has worked closely alongside us since 2009. They share our vision for the future and
will continue to support new investment in both the Films and Security businesses moving
forward.”
“This transfer of ownership means that the Innovia Group has a strong future. It enables the
company to sustain its growth plans across our technologies, brands and trademarks.”
The Innovia Group employs 1,600 people across two divisions – Innovia Films and Innovia
Security. It operates six manufacturing sites located in Australia, Belgium, Mexico, the United
Kingdom, and the United States, coupled with a network of sales offices, agents and distributors
throughout the world.
Innovia Group recently announced £40-milled worth of investment on its Wigton site; £20M to
be spent on a state-of-the-art gas turbine and a new "bubble," which will increase its biaxially
oriented polypropylene (BOPP) output by 10%. An additional £20M investment was announced
after the Bank of England confirmed its decision to adopt polymer bank notes. This will enable
Innovia Group to build a new plant to produce the new £5 and £10 polymer banknote substrate,
which will create a further 70-80 jobs on the site.
Treofan Creates New Business Unit for
Electronic Applications
RAUNHEIM, GERMANY (March 27, 2014) — With effect from April 1, Treofan Group is
consolidating its activities in the field of technical films into a new Electronics Business Unit. Until
now, the company has managed its capacitor film business and its innovative new TreoPore

the area of technical films into a single business unit, which will enable us to work even more
intensively on developing innovative solutions together with our partners in the electronics
industry.”
Treofan is continuing to press ahead with its structural transition from product-oriented to
industry-oriented processes. Recently, the company also created separate business units for
packaging films, labeling films, and tobacco films. These are headed by Yvo van Vliet, Executive
Vice President, Commercial Operations.
Sibur Boosts Biaxplen BOPP Film Capacity
SAMARA, RUSSIAN (May 28, 2014) — Biaxplen, part of Russian plastics and petrochemicals
group Sibur, has launched a new 30,500 tpa bioriented polypropylene (BOPP) film production line
at its Novokuybyshevsk in the Samara region.
The Sibur subsidiary invested €40.5m (£33m) in the new unit, supplied by the German
company Brückner, has raised the plant’s capacity to 55,500 tpa. The BOPP local project has
created more than 100 jobs at Novokuybyshevsk.
Late last year, Biaxplen installed another new BOPP line with a 38,000 tpa film capacity at its
plant in Tomsk, Russia. That project is also part of a wider expansion programme being undertaken
by the company.
“ The launch of the new facility (in Novokuybyshevsk) will enable SIBUR to increase
production of high value-added products for import substitution, reinforcing the Company’s
position in one of the most rapidly-growing markets of packaging materials,” Sibur chairman
Leonid Mikhelson commented.
The new line will allow Biaxplen to boost supplies of 5-layer films to the Russian and
European markets of countries including Italy, Poland, Germany, France and Turkey, said Sibur.
Demand for BOPP film in Russia is growing at between 4% and 5% a year with national
consumption reaching 130,000 tpa in 2013, Sibur quoted the Market Report Company as
calculating.

Rashid Al Ghurair, Chairman of Taghleef Industries stated : “The high-added value film range
of Derprosa Film will allow Ti to penetrate new markets, diversify its product offering and seize
further business opportunities. Our companies will join their forces and consolidate their presence
worldwide”.
Headquartered in Dubai, Ti is currently one of the leading BoPP producers with operations in
U.A.E., Oman, Egypt, USA, Canada, Australia, Italy and Hungary and distribution centers in China,
El Salvador and Germany.
Dr. Detlef Schuhmann, CEO of Ti Group confirmed that: “In the past years Derprosa Film has
been able to create a high-performing business and has strong prospects ahead. Ti is proud to add
this new company to the Group who shares the same values: to provide the industry with
outstanding products and services through reliable and consistent quality films.”
José Ángel Medina, Chief Executive Officer of Derprosa Film added: “Derprosa’s strategic
approach to the markets and continuous investment in research and development has allowed the
company to grow healthily. Indeed our choice to partner with Ti has been driven by our increasing
exposure to the markets and the opportunity to maximise our reach”.
Derprosa Film will be incorporated with Ti Europe consisting of 4 production sites: Italy,
Spain, Hungary and Egypt.
This strategic acquisition will expand the Ti group’s presence while increasing its annual
global BoPP film production capacity to approximately 400,000 tons.
In March, Taghleef said its Hungarian plant was upgrading its BOPP line to 5-layers,
increasing its film capacity at the plant to a total of 60,000 tpa. It’s expected that the energy
consumption after upgradation will decrease by 25%. The upgraded production line has been
expected to start on June 1st. Besides labeling and food packaging industry, the 5-layer film could
also service some special purposes other than food industry.

News in Europe Biaxially-oriented Film June 2014
- 23 -
LEICESTERSHIRE,UK (March 7, 2014) — Plastribution has acquired Cheshire-based flexible
and rigid plastics supplier, Armstrong Bradley, for an undisclosed sum.
According to the company, the acquisition was made to complement its films distribution
business, Plasfilms, and “all key staff at Armstrong Bradley are being retained”.
In the short term, the acquisition of
Armstrong Bradley will provide Plasfilms
with new suppliers, an increase in overall
capability, as well as an increase in its
customer base.
Alan Moules, Plasfilms’ commercial
director, said: “We are excited at the
prospects for growth that the acquisition of
Armstrong Bradley will provide. The
strategic alignment of both businesses will
provide better opportunities to exploit
sales throughout the UK films, labels and flexible packaging sectors. “For the foreseeable future
both Plasfilms and Armstrong Bradley will operate in parallel, enabling the best route to market,”
he added.
Cambridgeshire-based Plasfilms’ current product portfolio includes: shrink films, BOPP, CPP,
PET films and Sanzip reclosable zippers.
Nordmeccanica Vacuum Plant Dedicated; New Metallizing
Systems Demonstrated
PIACENZA, ITALY (May 19, 2014) — Italian converting-machinery maker Nordmeccanica
Group officially dedicated its new Nordmeccanica Vacuum Srl plant in Piacenza, Italy, last Friday
before an audience of 500+ industry professionals, customers, suppliers and packaging brand
owners from across the globe. Along with a half-day Intl. Summit for Packaging technical
conference, the event introduced two of the company’s new vacuum-metallizing systems via live
demonstrations.
Nordmeccanica Group president Antonio Cerciello welcomed several dignitaries, including
local and national politicians, and representatives from two Chinese plastics organizations, to the
ribbon-cutting ceremony.
“We spent the last year integrating the technology of Galileo Vacuum Systems (which
Nordmeccanica acquired in January 2013) into our operation, revamped things and the first machine
Biaxially-oriented Film June 2014 News in Europe
- 24 -
was installed last month,” he said. “We have outstanding partners and designed our machinery from
scratch in only one year. Nordmeccanica controls the Chinese market for coating, laminating and
now metallizing machinery.”
The Vacuum Div. will contribute to the overall success of the company. With currently 300
employees worldwide, sales were €82 million in 2013. Cerciello says sales this year will likely
increase 20%, reaching €102 million based on orders that are already on the books. The company
forecasts that 80 more jobs at the company are expected to be created in the next six months. The
new plant, 65,000 sq ft, opening in the midst of the Italian recession is clearly a positive thing,
Cerciello says.
“Nordmeccanica has a 75% share in markets where we’re active,” he continued. “We want to
lead in markets where there’s growth such as in packaging and metallization. Using plastic films
with metal layers ultimately has a lower cost versus other materials or multiple materials. Half of
our customers use metallized products in their converting.”

Charter NEX Films Receives NASA Awards
for Balloon Program Participation
USA (May 21, 2014) — Charter NEX Films, Inc. has received a 2013 NASA Agency Group
Achievement Award and a Silver Achievement Medal from NASA in recognition of their
involvement with NASA’s Balloon Program. NASA’s Columbia Scientific Balloon Facility (CSBF)
uses Charter NEX film for Super Pressure Balloons and Zero Pressure Balloons.
2012/2013 Antarctic Long Duration Balloon Campaign for NASA's Balloon Program
The Group Achievement Award was given in recognition for involvement with the 2012/2013
Antarctic Long Duration Balloon (LDB) Campaign for NASA's Balloon Program. Charter NEX
Films was named as part of the team in this successful campaign. Recipients of this award include
personnel from NASA, the Columbia Scientific Balloon Facility, Aerostar, and Charter NEX Films.
The Silver Achievement Medal was given
to Charter NEX Films in recognition of the
continued production of exceptional quality
balloon film for the NASA Balloon Program.
"We are grateful for the recognition from
NASA for our quality and innovation," said
Kathy Bolhous, CEO. "It is an honor to be
selected for the Silver Achievement Medal and
the Group Achievement Award. Our
production team does an excellent job of
making the best quality film for the specific applications required."
“The Silver Achievement Medal award is very special. In some ways it crosses over with the
successful 2012/2013 Antarctic campaign, but it is a targeted award specifically for Charter NEX
Films,” says Henry Cathey, Jr., engineer with New Mexico State Universities, Physical Science
Laboratory. “It is singular recognition of the quality of your product and the dedication of your staff.
Only a very select group of Silver Achievement Medals are presented each year from the many
applicants. I think these awards speak for themselves on the importance of Charter NEX towards
the NASA Balloon Programs success.”
“We are very proud to receive these awards, because they demonstrate our commitment to
our people, our assets, and our ability to make critical, high performing films to exacting
standards,” said Dave Timm, Executive VP of Technology.

Successful scientific balloon flight missions can be measured with metrics including system
performance, “events captured”, quality of data, and more. Underlying and enhancing all of this is
the common denominator of time of flight. Longer observation times are better for the science
teams. Successful long flight times require exceptional balloons made of very high quality balloon
film.
Three successful balloon flights conducted during the 2012/2013 LDB Antarctica Campaign,
and the successful Super Pressure Balloon (SPB) deployment flight from Sweden in August 2012
were all made of film manufactured by Charter NEX Films, Inc. These flights demonstrated the
manufacturer’s focus toward quality, and, according to Cathey, exemplify a number of the NASA
Core Values of excellence, teamwork, and integrity. The August 2012 test flight of the SPB
showcased the quality of the balloon film, and was another step toward qualifying a new flight
vehicle for the science community. All of the NASA SPBs have been made of Charter NEX film.
Charter NEX Films are specialists in blown film extrusion. They produce high quality
specialty products for a number of industries including agriculture, food and beverage, graphics,
lawn and garden, industrial, medical, packaging, and more. The NASA film quantity requirements
are extremely small compared to the millions of pounds of film Charter NEX produces for other
industries.
“The NASA film is a unique and engineered product produced to detailed requirements and
specifications,” says Debora Fairbrother, Chief of the NASA Balloon Program Office. “This often
requires runs at much slower speeds to produce NASA film, but Charter NEX is committed toward
producing the best quality balloon film.”
According to Fairbrother, Charter NEX demonstrates excellence through using state of the art
extrusion equipment that produces precision thickness film to the exacting NASA standards. “They
have worked very hard on their engineering and production processes to make an extraordinary
material,” said Fairbrother. “They have encouraged teamwork through collaboration by working
with NASA to refine production processes. Teamwork has been key toward successful product
production.” The ongoing relationship between NASA and Charter NEX Films has developed an
environment of trust, honest dealings, and fostered open communication that are all marks of a
company with integrity.
“ Charter NEX appreciates and enjoys the innovative, collaborative process that NASA
employs,” said Timm. “The open environment of trust and innovation is something we strive for
with all of our customers at Charter NEX.”
In addition to the film produced for NASA’s SPB flights, Charter NEX Films also worked
with NASA to develop film for the Long Duration Balloons (LDB). LDB flights from Antarctica
News in America Biaxially-oriented Film June 2014
- 27 -
have been called the “crown jewel” of the NASA Balloon Programs flights. The launches and
extended flights offer the science community a unique platform to launch very large payloads to
near space altitudes for flights lasting many weeks. The three successful balloon flights conducted
during the 2012/2013 LDB Antarctica Campaign met the full desired success criteria. Two of the
flights employed cryogens, and therefore had known flight durations prior to launch; each of these
flights met their maximum durations. The third flight broke a record for flight duration for a large
NASA flown scientific payload on a balloon, flying for over 55 days.
The Antarctic Long Duration Balloon (LDB) campaign serves as the most significant scientific
endeavor of NASA’s Balloon Program since the early 1990’s, and was extraordinarily successful.
Throughout the nearly 20 year history of Antarctic scientific ballooning, The NASA Balloon
Program has stepped forward to meet the challenge to achieve more science through supporting
longer duration flights, heavier payloads, higher data rates and increased mission opportunities in
order to increase the returns on science. Thousands of hours of flight time mean significantly
increased data return. Not only did these flights accumulate the longest flight times in a single
Antarctic Campaign season, but the balloon flight performance in terms of altitude stability was
exceptional.
Oben Group / OPP Film (Peru) Is First to Install New 4.8m Wide
Atlas CW5400 Slitter Rewinder for Film
LIMA, PERÚ (May 27, 2014) — OPP Film S.A. of Peru is part of Oben Holding Group and is a
rapidly expanding company which first commenced operations in BOPP film production in 1991
with the foundation of BOPP del Ecuador S.A. This company exported film to the neighbouring
countries of Colombia & Peru and then commenced production of BOPP film in Peru in 2003 with
the establishment of OPP Film S.A. in Lima.
Since then, continuing rapid expansion of business has led the Oben Holding Group to invest
in additional BOPP, BOPET and CPP film lines, an extrusion coating line, vacuum metallizing
machinery and acquisition of other South American film producers. It is a creative and modern
industrial group that develops, produces and sells polypropylene (PP) film for flexible packaging
for consumer goods and other industrial applications, coated film for the graphic arts industry and
thermoformed PP products. It is now present in more than 25 countries in the Americas, Africa and
Europe.
Biaxially-oriented Film June 2014 News in America

OPP Film will this year become the first company to install and commission the ‘next
generation’ Atlas CW5400 Series slitter rewinder at 4.8m wide. The Atlas CW5400 Series is
available in widths from 3,600 to 5,400mm and
the complete CW Series of more compact film
slitting solutions now covers machine widths from
2,500mm to 10,400mm with running speeds up to
1,500m/min.
The first of two CW5400 film slitters ordered
will be installed at OPP Film in Lima during Q3
this year and will be processing the world’s
widest metallized BOPP film currently available
at 4500mm. The second CW5400 film slitter will be installed and commissioned early in 2015.
Major benefits of the new Atlas CW Series technology include higher efficiency, increased
productivity and reliability, higher quality rewind reels, reduced noise levels and more effective,
operator-friendly control systems.
The Atlas CW Series has been designed to cope with the increasing speed of film production
lines and does not just rely on a sustainable, increased running speed to achieve this - the CW Series
also has faster acceleration and deceleration cycles.
Compared to a conventional film slitter running at 1,500m/min. producing rewind lengths of
8,000m, the Atlas CW Series will have a faster rewind cycle, but at only 1,200m/min. When
running much longer rewind lengths at a speed of 1,500m/min., together with faster acceleration &
deceleration cycles, the new CW Series far out-performs conventional film slitters.
Atlas has now sold more than 70 of the new CW Series slitter rewinders since their
introduction in 2012, in widths from 2,500mm to 10,400mm for BOPP, BOPET and CPP films.
This latest Atlas technology features wireless rewind arm positioning, automatic knife positioning
and direct drive web path rollers ensuring optimum web tension for films as thin as 6 micron and up
to 125 micron. Electrical cabinets are now fully integrated in to the machines to reduce the space
required for installation with ‘under floor’ service channels no longer required.

programs just completed, represent historical levels of capital investment in our business and will
improve our level of customer satisfaction.”
Projects finalized in April include a plant-wide debottlenecking initiative in addition to a plant
expansion and installation of a new state-of-the-art cast-film extrusion line. The new coextrusion
line is capable of producing the latest evolution of the company’s products and is its first new line
in 10 years. Combined output improvement between the two projects will exceed an incremental
25% on an annualized unit-volume basis.
New Brushed, Metallized-film Supplier Metal FX Films
Reunites Two Industry Veterans
NEW JERSY, USA (Feb. 24, 2014) — The dramatic visual effect of metallized film, combined
with the elegance of the brushed finish, has proven an unbeatable combination for brands that want
to announce their arrival on the shelf. The good news is that two industry veterans who helped
perfect the art of brushed films are announcing their return, having chosen to once again make their
presence known in the packaging films industry.
After an absence of two years, the urge to
return to the manufacturing sector proved too
strong for Jim Parker and Charlie Yetka, resulting
in their decision to go back to producing the
exquisite appearance of ‘brushed films’ once again.
The result is the formation of Metal FX Films LLC,
based in Bridgewater, NJ.
The 16,000-sq-ft manufacturing facility and
offices are now operational and producing brushed films that, according to co-founder Charlie
Yetka, “will surpass in quality and appearance anything on the market today.”
Jim and Charlie’s combined 80 years of production excellence will be linked with their
on-time scheduling expertise, creativity, and an infinite commitment to unparalleled quality and
customer service. The result is the re-establishment of the magic they have perfected using their
experience, initially in hot stamping, then their years in the brushed films industry. The results are
dramatic, eye-catching visuals that simply stand out on store shelves for a wide variety of products.
Biaxially-oriented Film June 2014 News in America

“Our intention is to return brushed films to the pinnacle of the world’s decorative, graphic
films,” Jim Parker explained. “We are proud to now begin our new company with a renewed
commitment to users and designers who can introduce this magnificent film to their customers
knowing it is the finish to get their product noticed.”
Because of their production expertise and imagination, past and present packages such as golf
ball boxes, special-edition and premium DVDs, mouthwash rinses, skin and hair care products,
fragrances and shopping bags, presentation folders, CDs, gift items, makeup and perfumes, special
issues of magazine covers, annual reports, POP displays, automotive interior parts, kitchen
appliances, gift cards, elegant confections, and men’s and women’s toiletry cartons enjoyed
significant spikes in sales by using the elegant brushed metallic look as their chosen finish.
The two partners forming the new Metal FX Films LLC have known each other since their
youth, working together producing decorative graphic films almost 40 years ago.
Former ExxonMobil BOPP Equipment Headed to Auction
ONTARIO , USA (April 11, 2014) — Biaxially oriented polypropylene film equipment in
Belleville, Ontario, formerly run by ExxonMobil Chemical Co. has been auctioned on May 1.
The BOPP film operation was not included in a sale of ExxonMobil Chemical’s global BOPP
business to Jindal Poly Films Ltd. of New Delhi, India. A sales agreement between the two
companies was announced in October 2012 and Jindal completed the purchase last year.
ExxonMobil Chemical said in 2012 that the Belleville plant was its highest cost BOPP operation.
Hilco Industrial of Grand Rapids, Mich., has conducted the auction live and online. Auctioneer
Schneider Industries Inc. of St. Louis worked with Hilco on the auction.
Key assets include two BOPP lines with 260 inch nominal width. The lines have Bruckner
machine direction orientation sections and Marshall & Williams transverse direction orientation
systems. A Hilco spokesman said the BOPP lines can be purchased entire or on a component basis.
The facility is not for sale but space in it is available for lease.
A Leybold Topmet vacuum metallizer and Kataoka sheet slitting line are other major pieces of
equipment. Grinders, dust collectors, silos, drive motors, pallet storage systems and a range of
supporting equipment are also part of the sale.
Jindal acquired Houston -based ExxonMobil Chemical BOPP plants in Shawnee, Okla.;
LaGrange, Ga.; Virton, Belgium; Brindisi, Italy; and Kerkrade, Netherlands, and a sales office in
Luxembourg. The operations employed about 1,500.
Jindal claims to have global BOPP capacity of 428 million pounds per year. Its biaxially
oriented PET film capacity is 254 million pounds per year. It can metallize 127 million pounds per
of the films.
