Seattle, WA, USA--(Jobwerx News)--New resins deliver shatter resistance and aesthetics with ideal attributes for refrigerated or frozen food plastics packaging containers.

With unmatched low-temperature toughness and excellent clarity, ZYLAR EX 720 is ideal for applications such as refrigerated or frozen food packaging.

"We are delighted to offer a new resin that delivers outstanding shatter resistance and aesthetics - ideal attributes for food packaging," said Debra van Holst, Global Packaging Director for NOVA Chemicals.

Uses for ZYLAR EX 720 include fresh fruit and produce containers, salad bowls and lids, cold beverage containers, deli trays and frozen dessert packages.
