NOVA Chemicals News September 21, 2005 NOVA Chemicals 'unwraps' new plastics for food packaging -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Pittsburgh, PA - NOVA Chemicals Corporation today announced it has expanded its suite of performance plastic resins for food packaging, introducing new materials to help meet growing consumer demand for fresh, healthy and convenient packaged foods. The company´s latest products were showcased during a special event at The Culinary Loft in New York, NY, on September 21, 2005. The event featured a presentation by Marc Summers, host of The Food Network´s number-one television program, "Unwrapped." The event also featured representatives of Clear Pack Co. and Club Chef, companies that are benefiting from the unique attributes of NOVA ´ performance resins for food packaging. "Plastic food packaging has become an integral aspect of the modern kitchen," said Summers. "It is almost impossible to imagine dining at home today without the plastic package that keeps a mixed-green salad crisp and clean as it travels from the garden to your table - or the clear container that maintains the freshness and appearance of a frozen dessert until it is ready to be enjoyed."

As a resin manufacturer, NOVA Chemicals is committed to developing polymers that advance the science of food packaging. The company´s research and development efforts have yielded products that not only benefit consumers, they deliver greater value to food packaging companies and brand owners. "By leveraging our technology platforms and working closely with customers and end-users, we are delivering value throughout the chain," said Tony Torres, NOVA Chemicals´ Vice President of Styrenics Business Development.

NOVA Chemicals´ latest plastic resins deliver:

  • Superior freezer-to-microwave performance: DYLARK® FG 2500 styrenic copolymer is specially designed for high-temperature rigidity to prevent distortion of microwave containers and cold-temperature toughness for freezer protection.
  • Drop resistant, user-friendly food packaging: SURPASS® IFs932-R polyethylene for lids and closures enables better seals and improved flexibility in package design, keeping products such as ice cream and coffee fresh longer.
  • Ready-to-eat convenience: ZYLAR® EX 720 acrylic copolymer delivers clarity and shatter-resistance, making it perfect for takeout containers and frozen or refrigerated desserts.

NOVA Chemicals, Pittsburgh, PA, produces commodity plastics and chemicals that are essential to everyday life. Our employees develop and manufacture materials for customers worldwide that produce consumer, industrial and packaging products.
