Advantages of Matt Metallized Film
Superior Barrier Properties
The metallic layer of matt metallized films offers an effective barrier against environmental factors, making it ideal for packaging sensitive products. It protects against:
-
Oxygen and Moisture: Reduces oxygen transmission and water vapor penetration, extending the shelf life of food and pharmaceuticals.
-
UV Light: Blocks up to 99% of harmful UV rays, preventing product degradation and discoloration.
Premium Aesthetic Appeal
-
Matte Finish: Provides a soft, non-glare surface that enhances the look of packaging, labels, and decorative products.
-
High Printability: Supports flexographic, gravure, and digital printing, allowing for vibrant, high-quality designs.
Durability and Flexibility
-
Lightweight Yet Strong: Combines the mechanical strength of PET or BOPP with metalized barrier protection.
-
Flexible Forming: Can be laminated, folded, or shaped without cracking, ideal for pouches, wrappers, and gift packaging.
Sustainability
-
Recyclable: PET and BOPP substrates can be recovered using specialized recycling techniques.
-
Reduced Metal Use: Ultra-thin aluminum layer minimizes material consumption while maintaining barrier efficiency.
