BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene)

BOPP is one of the most used films in the packaging industry. It is biaxially oriented, meaning it is stretched in both the machine and transverse directions to increase strength, clarity, and thermal resistance. BOPP is a versatile and cost-effective packaging film widely used for food, retail, and industrial packaging.

  • High clarity and gloss
  • Excellent surface for printing and labeling
  • Good chemical and grease resistance
  • Cost-effective for mass production
  • Recyclable and environmentally friendly

• Food packaging (snacks, confectionery, bakery) • Labeling and branding • Consumer goods packaging (e.g., cosmetics, household products) • Lamination for enhanced barrier properties
