PACKAGING MATERIALS
Films
Choose film for the packaging process: thermoforming, tray sealing, vacuum, modified atmospheres or shrinking. DEE-Intra offers laminated, thermoforming, rigid, shrink, skin and polyolefin materials. Structure, thickness, barrier performance and sealability are matched to your product and line.
Laminated films
Barrier lidding films for vacuum, modified atmospheres and automatic packaging lines. Clarity, printing and properties matched to your product.
Applications and specifications
Thermoforming films
Flexible multilayer films for forming packs on automatic lines. Top and bottom materials work together.
Applications and specifications
Rigid films
For forming a rigid packaging base on thermoforming lines. Materials for different storage and processing conditions.
Applications and specifications
Shrink films
High-barrier films for vacuum packaging on Flow-Vac lines. They shrink tightly around the product.
Applications and specifications
Skin films
Vacuum packaging with a second-skin effect: clear film follows the product's shape and holds it on the base.
Applications and specifications
Polyolefin films
Flexible POF shrink films for products of different shapes. For semi-automatic and automatic packaging.
Applications and specificationsMatch the film to the entire process
Process and equipment
Thermoforming requires compatible top and bottom films. Traysealers need lidding film compatible with the tray; skin packaging requires a film suited to the base and the machine’s operating conditions.
Barrier performance and properties
The product determines the requirements: gas and water-vapour barriers, clarity, mechanical resistance, printing and opening features. Freezing, pasteurisation and sterilisation conditions must be checked for the specific material structure.
Selection information
For an enquiry, specify the product, line type and model, roll width, preferred thickness and processing conditions. A pack sample or the specification of your current film can help compare options.
Selection questions
Can film be changed without adjusting the line?
That depends on the material structure and properties. Sealing, forming and other operating settings affecting the finished pack must be checked.
How is film thickness selected?
Consider product shape and weight, forming depth, required strength and equipment capability. Greater thickness alone does not guarantee a better result.
Are printing and easy peel available?
Relevant film pages describe these options. Availability and compatibility are confirmed for the selected material and packaging system.
