🧃 In this episode of Crazy About Packaging, the CAP Pack, Natalie, Mike, and Jonathan, finally answer the questions they get asked most about ICPG’s flagship material: XPP.
You’ve heard us talk about XPP before — but this time, we’re getting specific. What is it? Can it run on your current form fill seal line? How does it compare to PET? Why does it matter if it “snaps”? And what’s the deal with sustainability?
We cover it all.
🔍 Tune in to explore:
What makes XPP different from other polypropylene materials (hint: a lot)
Why it works on polystyrene-designed FFS lines with minimal disruption
How it compares to PET in weight, recyclability, tooling wear, and barrier needs
What applications it’s best suited for — from dairy multipacks to hot fill and aseptic
How major brands like General Mills are already using it today
🎯 If you’re still using polystyrene, evaluating options for recyclable packaging, or just trying to understand what sets XPP apart, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.
