LAMINATES
OPP / OPP or CPP
Widely used for VFFS or HFFS applications in preference to single webs, due to improved presentation when the film is printed. Inks are sandwiched between the two layers giving a glossy, scuff-resistant finish. CPP seal layer gives tough seals and won’t scuff or scratch when packing abrasive products such as nuts, lentils, rice etc.
PET / LLDPE
When seal integrity is essential, a quality hot-tack PE allows for seal contamination and supports a heavy pack weight. A metallised PET or PE gives a premium ‘foil style’ appearance plus excellent oxygen, moisture and light barrier properties. These films are ideal for dry foods, flours, sauces etc.
PET or PAPER / ALU / PE-SURLYN
Aluminium, up to 15 microns, offers the ultimate barrier for sensitive or long-life products. A PET outer layer gives a tough, glossy finish; paper adds tear ability for easy opening. The seal layer can be tailored to suit specific products on VFFS or sachet machines, including powders, liquids etc.
PA / PE CO EXTRUSION
These multi-layer films are available in a wide range of grades and thicknesses. Designed for thermoforming, they can be used for meats, cheese, fish, breads or medical components. High barrier EVOH layers can be added for products that require extra shelf life.
PET / UNIVERSAL SEAL PE
This is a specialist film designed for multiple tray-lidding applications, giving a strong peel and seals to a range of trays including APET, PP, PVC etc. This film allows for standardisation across different trays reducing the number of lidding films needed to be held in stock. An optional PVdC coating adds extra barrier properties for products such as pasta, desserts etc.
OPA or PET / PE-EVOH-PE
Where clear, high barrier film is required this offers an ideal solution. Suitable for M.A.P applications or the packing of aggressive products. A variety of sealing options allows for lidding, thermoforming, sachet and flow-wrap applications. OPA offers extra strength and puncture resistance for large volume or abrasive products.
