1 Inch Core Glossy Metalized Thermal Lamination Film BOPP / PET Material

Thermal lamination film BOPP is the most popular packaging material during the post-press process. Available in glossy and matte appearances, this 1-inch core (25.4mm inner paper core) is particularly popular in African markets such as Nigeria and Kenya, as well as countries like Germany and Nicaragua. The 1-inch core design offers easy operation and handling advantages.

Metalized Thermal Laminating Film is primarily composed of BOPP/PET + EVA layers. Using an extrusion coating process, these two layers are combined to create a film where one side retains the properties of BOPP/PET film while the other side becomes a heat-sensitive surface used for dry lamination.

The standard thickness for BOPP metalized lamination film is 28 micron, consisting of 18 micron BOPP metalized film and 10 micron EVA adhesion. PET metalized lamination film typically measures 22 micron, combining 12 micron metalized PET film with 10 micron EVA adhesion.

Metalized Thermal Laminating Film is widely used for:

• Textbook covers
• Brochures and leaflets
• Sweet boxes and cosmetics packaging
• Shopping bags
• Diaries and notebooks

Metalized Thermal Laminating Film requires a laminating machine (hot laminator) to melt the EVA layer onto substrates such as paper. During the process, the film passes over a heated roller and, under appropriate pressure, adheres to the paper. This straightforward process can even be performed at home for small applications, and is also known as heat lamination, dry lamination, or hot lamination.

1. Adjust roller pressure and temperature according to different paper types and ink
2. Conduct small trial runs when using the film for the first time or changing sizes
3. Normal process temperature: 90°C-105°C (203°F - 221°F)
4. Ensure ink is completely dry before laminating to prevent delamination
5. Store materials in low temperature, dry environments

The following factors may affect lamination quality:

• Use of metal ink
