What Is Iridescent Film?

Iridescent film is a multi-layer composite material that creates a color-shifting, holographic appearance when exposed to light. This effect is achieved through special coating, metallization, or laminated foil structures on PET, BOPP, CPP, or paper substrates.

Unlike ordinary metallic films, iridescent film reflects light at different angles, producing vibrant rainbow colors that elevate the visual appeal of packaging products. This makes it especially popular in gift packaging, floral wrapping, confectionery trays, bakery packaging, and decorative applications.

Material Composition

Our iridescent film can be produced using the following base materials:

PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate)

• High clarity and excellent dimensional stability

• Strong tensile strength and tear resistance

• Suitable for metallization and holographic coating

BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene)

• Lightweight and cost-effective

• Good gloss and surface smoothness

• Widely used for decorative and flexible packaging

CPP (Cast Polypropylene)

• Superior flexibility and heat sealability

• Ideal for laminated structures and food-contact applications

Foil Paper / Metallized Paper

• Premium appearance with metallic shine

• Commonly used for cake tray liners and food-grade packaging

• Provides structure and rigidity for baking trays
