How to Use Saran Resins

To extrude Saran™ Resins, you will need equipment that has been specifically designed to process Saran Resins.

You will need equipment that:

  • Minimizes residence time
  • Can keep the temperature of Saran below 200°C (390°F)
  • Has screws, barrels and dies made of high nickel alloys

If your equipment already has these features, explore our web site further to find the right Saran Resins for processing via monolayer extrusion, multilayer sheet extrusion, multilayer film extrusion, and specialty processes. Please contact us to determine specifically what you will need to get started with Saran Resins.

These features are often easy to design into a new line, so if you are considering new equipment, contact us for equipment advice and a list of potential vendors.

If you want the performance of Saran Resins but your equipment is not suitable, consider Saran Films, which offer many new users a cost-effective way to step up to Saran performance.
