The different packaging films and their applications in the industry!

Each product has its own characteristics and applications. 

Do you know the difference between them?

It is important to check which type of film is most suitable for each application, taking into account its mechanical properties, barrier, chemical resistance, among others.

Therefore, we have separated for you some examples of plastic films and their applications:

  1. Composite Films

Composite films are a combination of two or more types of plastics. These materials have specific characteristics that make them ideal for certain applications, such as protection against oxygen and moisture in food packaging.

  1. heat shrinkable film 

Such plastic film shrinks and molds itself to the packaged product when exposed to high temperatures. It is widely used in food, beverage, pharmaceutical and cosmetic packaging, providing additional protection and an attractive appearance to products.

Also known as stretch wrap film, it is widely used to wrap and protect cargo during transportation. This film is highly resistant and elastic, which guarantees the safety of the products during handling.
