Areas of application for laminated films, duplex and triplex films in industry and technology
Composite film is a collective term for multi-layer film composites. The film materials are usually PE, PET, PET met, nylon, paper, aluminum foil, BOPP or CPP. They are very popular as a flexible packaging solution. The areas of application are particularly in the mass food market. These include tea, coffee, spices, seeds, pastries, biscuits and edible oils. They are often used as outer packaging in pharmacies and for cleaning products.
Highly functional laminated films, duplex and triplex films from ABLAL meet these requirements perfectly.
Films and their properties
We supply laminated films, duplex and triplex films in standard sizes and also in smaller quantities on request.
Typical applications
Popular applications include zipper bags, hanging bags or Eurohole bags, carry-hole bags, front zippers, stand-up pouches for unfolding, foldable teenotches, tetrapak-style quatro seal bags, bags with a pouring application or even with a spout on one corner or in the middle of one side, tube bags, beak bags at the top or bottom, shaped bags or side-fold bags.
Requirements for laminated films are particularly high in the automotive industry:
- UV resistance
- Chemical resistance
- Abrasion resistance
- Scratch resistance
- Insensitivity to stress cracks
- Favorable isotropic properties for paint application
- Mechanical resistance to external impacts, such as hail or stone chipping
- Mechanical resistance
- Thermoformability
Material combinations
Popular combinations are PET/PE with almost universal application possibilities. Combinations of BOPP with PET, CPP, especially for baked goods, biscuits or sweets. Metallized PET or BOPP is also very popular in these sectors. A classic is the PET/PE composite for cleaning agents or oils and edible oils. Some reinforce the PET/PE composite for oils with nylon or use multiple composites.
Medicine and pharmaceuticals
PET/PE is very popular in pharmacies. Instead of PET, AL film can be combined with PE. There are also frequent applications in the pharmacy for paper/aluminum foil/PA/CPP composites. Paper is skin-friendly and easy to grip, Al-film hardly lets any water or even air through, PA/CPP protects the pharmacy goods from the Al-film.
Because seeds or spices need to be stored and transported just as well as pharmacy goods, but aluminum foil is expensive, METPET laminated film with PET/PE is used as a substitute. Coffee and tea also have such composite films in widespread use.
Science and technology
The scientific areas of application for composite films are mechanical protection with their tear resistance. Puncture resistance plays a special role in outer packaging. The laminated film should be UV-tight and offer high light protection. They are a barrier against moisture from the environment, the ambient air and during removal, the moisture of the recipient or the removal systems. They should be temperature-resistant. Some laminated films should also be able to withstand cooking without losing their shape, as is the case with rice.
Laminated films
The particular advantage of laminated films is that they directly enclose the goods and can also carry the product information and the product idea, for example through imprints by the suppliers. Everything from single-color prints to full-color photographs can be printed realistically on laminated films. However, the advantages go even further: both the laminated film and the printing inks as well as the prints are inexpensive and can be produced as quickly as they are opened for use. Composite film survives all stages of the process sequence without any problems and can be easily recycled.
Metallized composite film requires a vacuum and physical vapor deposition for production, which is quite complex.
Production and processing. Extruding, laminating, laminating
The packaging industry produces the film laminates by extruding, laminating or laminating in the desired and required quantity with the appropriate characteristics. Film laminates make the modern market system largely possible and ensure a high level of hygiene. Basically, the taste also makes it clear that they are not suitable for consumption. Composite films are harmless to humans in all areas of application.
The low cost of primary production and the fact that it can be recycled many times over with complete replacement after each consumption cycle make the cost of laminated film attractively low. Contamination caused by contents protected with laminated films is rare and often exclusively attributable to the effects of force.
There is hardly a better material for packaging than laminated film. The separation of environment and consumer goods is excellent. The areas of application for laminated films are very broad. Duplex film and triplex film make it possible to meet almost every wish of manufacturers for secure packaging in all usage situations of their goods. The separability of the film layers is very important for recycling in order to save costs. Composite films appreciate in value and remain valuable after use.
