AVERY DENNISON’S THEME FOR LABELEXPO HIGHLIGHTS ITS FOCUS ON HELPING CUSTOMERS GROW
Leiden, The Netherlands - Avery Dennison announced today that its theme for Labelexpo Europe is “Together We Grow,” which will highlight the way the Company works with its customers to help them grow their businesses and profits.
Leiden, The Netherlands - Avery Dennison have launched two new products in their proprietary co-extruded self-adhesive labelling films range: Fasson® FasClear Plus and Primax Plus, which have been engineered to deliver additional benefits over the first-generation products, which they replace. At a new, lower caliper, Fasson® FasClear Plus and Primax Plus bring added value in conversion, dispensing, and on-pack performance. Both narrow-web label converters and their customers can now benefit from the cost savings inherent in longer reels for these new products -- more labels per printed reel, reduced on-press downtime for reel changes, and reductions in reel changes on the labelling line. 
DSM Engineering Plastics has introduced Akulon XP, a high productivity grade of PA6 for film applications. Akulon XP offers a broader processing window leading to more flexibility and more uniform thickness distribution in cast film, more melt strength and better parison stability leading to optimized LDPE/LLDPE ratio in multi-layer films without sacrificing the mechanical properties, more shear thinning than with standard PA6 enabling thus higher coating velocities possible and still absolutely gel free. 
Borouge, the leading provider of innovative plastics solutions in the Middle East, Asia Pacific and Africa, today announced that it moves its Shanghai office to Plaza 66 Tower 2 at Nanjing Xi Lu, located in the heart of Puxi, Shanghai, with effect from June 18 2007. 
Borouge, a leading provider of innovative, value creating plastics solutions, today awarded a contract worth approximately US$300 million for the construction of a new olefins conversion unit (OCU) to Samsung Engineering for Borouge 2, the major expansion project at the company’s production facilities in Ruwais, Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates.
