More About MikaZone® HPMC MK4P

Packaging

Multi-Layer Bags

Each bag of MikaZone cellulose ether weighs 25kg and is packaged in multi-layer paper bags with a PE liner for added protection and durability.

Standard Pallets

MikaZone HPMC is securely packaged on pallets as a standard practice to maintain optimal quality throughout the entire process, from production to delivery.

Custom Packaging

We offer OEM support, allowing you to use custom packaging and develop your own brand with our products.

Storage

To maintain the quality of MikaZone cellulose ether products, store them in a cool, dry environment. The recommended shelf life is 2 years.

For high viscosity grades, gradual viscosity loss may occur after extended storage periods (over 1 year). Once opened, it’s essential to reseal the container properly to prevent moisture absorption, which could impact the product’s performance.
