Tublin®
Award-winning film technology for food processing applications
When packaging becomes part of the process
Most packaging solutions are designed to create a barrier. Tublin® was developed to do something different.
Its unique structure allows water vapour to pass through the material while maintaining a complete barrier against bacteria and external contamination. This makes Tublin® an active part of the production process, supporting traditional methods such as drying, curing, smoking, and maturation while helping improve food safety, consistency, and yield.
Because sometimes the right packaging solution is not about creating a stronger barrier. It is about creating the right one.

Why choose Tublin®?

Different applications require different performance characteristics.
Tublin® helps food producers combine traditional processing methods with modern production requirements.
Key benefits include:
- Improved food safety through a complete bacteria barrier
- Increased yields and reduced product loss
- More consistent processing conditions
- Reduced waste and handling
- Support for traditional drying and maturation processes
- Reliable and repeatable product quality
Unlike conventional packaging, Tublin® works with the product rather than simply containing it.
Typical applications
Tublin® is used across a wide range of food processing applications where controlled moisture transmission creates value.
