Aluminized BOPP Brings New Choice to Users

VM-PET has been favored for dried fruit packaging because of its excellent moisture resistance. However, due to its lack of heat sealability, relative cost and other disadvantages, it brings business opportunities for the application of VM-BOPP, and also brings new choices for packaging with higher requirements for moisture resistance. At present, this material has been produced domestically.

VM-BOPP, as the name suggests, is a kind of film that is aluminum-plated on BOPP. Compared with VM-PET, VM-BOPP has good printability and heat sealing properties, which makes it possible for VM-BOPP to obtain the final packaged product in one process. Greatly reduce material costs and time costs.

In Europe, the use of VM-BOPP has been widely promoted, which is also related to their usage habits. The use of such "new" materials in China is still in its infancy. However, on the packaging of shampoo, candy, chocolate, and melon seeds, some domestic companies have already made bold attempts to achieve good results.
