Protective Display for Titanic Coal

INVISTA’s PERFORMA™ film and sheet is being used to encase coal from the Titanic, which is now available to the general public for purchase. The clear APET sheet creates a durable package that, when combined with the glossy paperboard mounting base embellished with metallic ink, resembles a miniature version of the display cases used in museums and galleries.

The coal is owned by the corporation responsible for salvaging the ship, RMS Titanic Inc., and, according to RMS Titanic Inc., is the only authentic Titanic artifact available for purchase. RMS Titanic, Inc. works with Premier Exhibitions to display the extensive collection of Titanic artifacts currently touring North America.

PERFORMA™ film and sheet is known for clarity, consistency and easy processing. It is manufactured using INVISTA’s PET resin. INVISTA has a long-standing reputation in the industry for providing quality PET resins, leaving no guesswork for end-users in need of a reliable product. Customers enjoy a customized order process that allows them to purchase a variety of film from a single supplier.
