Explore our flagship EVOH resin products — engineered for superior oxygen barrier performance and widely adopted across Colombia's packaging, food, and industrial sectors.
Colombia is one of Latin America's fastest-growing economies, and its plastics and packaging industries are undergoing rapid transformation driven by food safety regulations, export demand, and sustainability mandates.
Colombia's food and beverage packaging industry has expanded significantly, with multinational retailers and local brands demanding higher barrier materials to extend shelf life and meet export-quality standards. EVOH resin has become essential in multilayer films used across Bogotá, Medellín, and Cali's industrial zones.
Colombia hosts a robust plastics manufacturing ecosystem, particularly in the Antioquia and Valle del Cauca regions. Local converters and film manufacturers increasingly source EVOH raw materials to produce co-extruded films for vacuum packaging, retort pouches, and thermoformed trays used in meat, dairy, and ready-meal segments.
Colombia's government has introduced progressive environmental legislation, including restrictions on single-use plastics and incentives for recyclable and biodegradable packaging. EVOH-based barrier materials — especially biodegradable variants like TPS EVOH 2901-AF — align with these policies, giving manufacturers a compliant and future-proof solution.
Colombia's automotive assembly sector, centered in cities like Bogotá and Envigado, requires high-performance barrier materials for fuel system components and emission-control parts. EVOH resins such as TPS EVOH 2901-AP deliver the chemical resistance and low permeability critical for these demanding applications.
Colombia's diverse agricultural landscape — from coffee plantations in the Andes to tropical fruit farms on the Pacific coast — creates strong demand for high-performance agricultural films. UV-resistant and biodegradable EVOH barrier films help protect crops, reduce pesticide use, and improve yield, making them increasingly popular among Colombian agro-industrial operators.
Colombia is a regional pharmaceutical hub, with a growing domestic production base and export capacity to neighboring Andean nations. Pharmaceutical manufacturers require EVOH-based blister films and sachets that meet strict moisture and oxygen barrier standards — a segment where TPS's product portfolio provides a decisive technical advantage.

As Colombia's industrial landscape modernizes, EVOH raw materials are at the center of several transformative trends across packaging, agriculture, healthcare, and sustainability.
Colombian consumers increasingly demand fresher, longer-lasting food products. Retailers and food processors are adopting EVOH-based multilayer films to extend shelf life by 3–5× compared to conventional packaging, reducing food waste and improving profitability across the supply chain.
Colombia's environmental legislation is accelerating the shift from traditional barrier materials to recyclable and biodegradable alternatives. TPS's bio-based EVOH variants are positioned to capture this growing segment as manufacturers seek compliance without sacrificing performance.
The integration of EVOH layers with active and intelligent packaging systems — including oxygen scavengers, moisture indicators, and antimicrobial agents — is a growing trend in Colombia's premium food and pharmaceutical sectors, creating new opportunities for specialty EVOH grades.
Colombian exporters of coffee, fresh flowers, tropical fruits, and processed foods face strict quality requirements from North American and European buyers. EVOH barrier packaging helps Colombian exporters meet international standards, opening new markets and commanding premium prices.
With Colombia's pharmaceutical industry growing at over 6% annually, demand for high-barrier blister films and sachets is surging. EVOH resins that meet USP and FDA standards are increasingly specified by Colombian drug manufacturers for both domestic and export markets.
Post-pandemic supply chain disruptions have prompted Colombian manufacturers to diversify their raw material sources. TPS's global supply network — with roots in Argentina and operations spanning Asia and Latin America — offers Colombian buyers a resilient, multi-sourced supply of EVOH resins.
From Bogotá's food processing plants to Antioquia's agricultural heartland, TPS EVOH resins power a wide range of Colombian industrial applications.
Looking to the future, TPS Specialty Chemical Limited will continue to expand its global business and actively respond to market challenges with the purpose of "innovation-driven, win-win cooperation." We believe that through close cooperation with partners in Colombia and across Latin America, TPS will play a more important role in the global chemical industry and create greater value for customers and society.
