PTI Team Member Kevin Ortman, PhD, will present insights on hot fill packaging solutions utilizing cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) in combination with high-density polyethylene (HDPE).

This session will explore how these materials work together to address the performance, clarity, and barrier requirements of hot fill applications, while maintaining durability and manufacturability.

Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of material selection considerations, processing benefits, and real-world applications where COC-enhanced HDPE packaging can deliver improved product protection and visual appeal. This presentation is ideal for packaging professionals seeking innovative approaches to meet hot fill demands without compromising efficiency or quality.
