Shaping Sustainable and Eco-Conscious Solutions with Watersol™

Watersol™ by Arrow Greentech delivers innovative water-soluble PVOH films that enable sustainable, environmentally friendly packaging for a cleaner future.

PVA/PVOH films, or polyvinyl alcohol films, are water-soluble and biodegradable materials used in packaging and various other applications. They dissolve in water, leaving no harmful residues, making them eco-friendly alternatives to traditional plastics.

PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) films are revolutionising the way businesses think about packaging and material solutions. With their unique combination of environmental friendliness and performance, these dissolvable films offer a sustainable alternative that doesn't compromise on quality.

Arrow Greentech Ltd. – now a leading packaging company, registered in Mumbai, Maharashtra, with its corporate headquarters in Europe – started this journey in 1992. Keeping “innovation” at the core, Watersol™, Arrow’s water-soluble film, underwent its first trial in 1985. This initiative established India as one of the first producers of water-soluble films, making a significant mark on the world map. We have always envisioned a green future, and with their star product, this vision has become a reality: a PVA film that dissolves on contact with water, leaves no residue, and is 100% environmentally friendly.

Features of Watersol™ PVOH Film

Our PVA films break down into water and carbon dioxide when exposed to microorganisms in the environment. This process leaves no harmful residue, aligning with eco-friendly disposal practices.

The dissolvable and biodegradable properties of PVA films make them environmentally safe. This reduces plastic waste and minimises pollution in oceans and landfills. Watersol™ PVA films prove to be a sustainable alternative to conventional plastics.

Our PVA films are flexible due to their polymer chains. It allows easy bending and shaping without any breakage. This flexibility makes them ideal for wrapping and packaging applications, adapting to different shapes and sizes.

Watersol™ PVA films remain effective in both low- and high-temperature environments. This stability makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, ensuring performance is never compromised.

The chemical structure of our PVA films is water-soluble. When the film interacts with water molecules, it causes the film to dissolve. This solubility varies with temperature and film composition, allowing for controlled dissolution.

The molecular structure of our PVA films exhibits high tensile strength, forming strong hydrogen bonds. This characteristic allows the films to withstand stress and stretching, making them durable for various applications.

Our PVA films provide excellent barrier properties against gases and odours. This makes them essential for sustainable packaging solutions. Whether it’s preserving freshness or containing materials, our films ensure your contents stay secure.

Where chemical exposure is a concern, our PVA films provide reliable protection. They are equipped to resist many chemicals, including oils, greases, and organic solvents.
