We don't sell packaging. We sell shelf life.
The BARRIXA™ Brand
BARRIXA™ is Antilia Tec Pack's brand of high-barrier flexible packaging films. Offered in four performance tiers — SMART, PRO, PRIME and ULTRA — it protects food and produce against oxygen, moisture and light, so you only pay for the barrier your product actually needs.
What is BARRIXA™
Every flexible pack Antilia makes — pouches, MAP bags, lidding and specialty films — can be built on a BARRIXA™ structure tuned to your product. Instead of over-engineering (and over-paying), you select the tier that delivers exactly the oxygen and moisture barrier your shelf-life target requires.
Barrier is measured by two numbers: OTR (Oxygen Transmission Rate) and WVTR (Water Vapour Transmission Rate). The lower the values, the longer your product stays fresh — and BARRIXA™ ULTRA reaches near-aluminium performance without the foil. Barrier film is also what holds the gas mix inside Modified Atmosphere Packaging.
Ultra-low OTR and WVTR keep oxidation, moisture and aroma loss out of the pack.
BARRIXA™ ULTRA delivers near-aluminium performance with advanced foil-free technology.
Four tiers let you match cost to shelf-life target — no over-engineering.
Performance validated to ASTM/ISO test conditions and real-world transit trials.
The Four Tiers
BARRIXA™ is available in four performance tiers, allowing you to select the optimum barrier level for your product while balancing performance and cost. Each tier is engineered to provide the required oxygen and moisture barrier for the desired shelf life.
| BARRIXA™ Tier | Barrier Level | OTR (cc/m²/day) | WVTR (g/m²/day) | Recommended Applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SMART | Medium Barrier | ≤ 0.50 | < 1.20–5.00 | Economy packs, short shelf-life foods, industrial and consumer packaging |
| PRO | High Barrier | ≤ 0.20 | ≤ 0.20 | Bakery, cereals, pet food, processed foods, general export packaging |
| PRIME | Very High Barrier | ≤ 0.10 | ≤ 0.10 | Snacks, biscuits, chocolates, spices, dry fruits, premium food packaging |
| ULTRA | Ultra-High Barrier | ≤ 0.08 | ≤ 0.06 | Coffee, pharmaceuticals, premium dairy powders, aroma-sensitive foods, long shelf-life exports |
BARRIXA™ OTR and WVTR figures are engineering design targets for tier selection, measured under standard laboratory conditions (OTR @ 23°C / 0% RH; WVTR @ 38°C / 90% RH).
SMART
Cost-effective barrier for products requiring moderate moisture and oxygen protection.
PRO
High barrier for products needing extended shelf life and improved freshness.
PRIME
Very high barrier for oxygen- and moisture-sensitive products.
ULTRA
Near-aluminium barrier performance with advanced foil-free technology for maximum product protection.
