Product type
Metallized BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene) films are a type of flexible packaging material that has a thin layer of metal applied to one side. This metallization process enhances the film's barrier properties, providing excellent protection against moisture, oxygen, and light, which helps to extend the shelf life of packaged products. The films are typically made from high-quality polypropylene, which is known for its strength and durability.

| Thickness | 12 to 50 microns |
| Metallization level | Up to 90% reflectivity |
| Tensile strength | Up to 150 MPa |
| Elongation at break | Up to 200% |
| Temperature resistance | Up to 120°C |
When selecting metallized BOPP films, buyers should consider the specific barrier properties required for their application, such as moisture and oxygen resistance. It is also important to specify the thickness and metallization level needed to achieve the desired performance. Certifications for food safety and compliance with industry standards may also be relevant, depending on the intended use. Quantities can vary widely, so buyers should clearly state their needs when requesting a quote.
