Why an EVOH barrier layer rather than PVdC?

The Vacufol FM45 food grade environmentally friendly shrink bag benefits from 9 layer EVOH barrier technology and is preferable to PVdC / PVC based shrink bags for the following reasons:

Production: Vacufol shrink bags use a EVOH for the barrier layer instead of PVdC, meaning that the bags are chlorine free and that no radiation is used in the production process.

EVOH or Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol film provides a superior gas barrier layer in these food grade shrink bags, prolonging shelf life and so reducing waste, transportion costs and the required thickness of packaging.
