The present invention is directed to a polyolefin composition (C) containing a heterophasic propylene copolymer (TERHECO) and a styrenic thermoplastic (sTPE), wherein the heterophasic propylene copolymer (TERHECO) consists of units derived from propylene, ethylene and 1-hexene. Further the present invention is directed to articles made from the polyolefin composition (C) as well as to the production of sterilized articles.

New C.sub.2C.sub.3 random copolymers, which combine low sealing initiation temperature (SIT), high hot-tack, low C6-solubles, good optical properties and an improved stiffness/impact balance, which are particularly suited for preparing blown films. The present invention is furthermore related to the manufacture of said copolymers and to their use, as well as to the blown films comprising such C.sub.2C.sub.3 random copolymers.
