Technical advantages of Alox film
Alox film has gas and moisture barrier capabilities by coating a thin and highly transparent layer of aluminum oxide on the base film. Compared with traditional transparent flexible packaging materials such as PVDC coated film and EVOH co-extruded film, Alox film provides higher barrier performance, and its gas and moisture permeability is even comparable to aluminum foil and metallized film. This makes Alox film an ideal choice for packaging requirements in high humidity and high temperature environments.
Superior performance in high humidity environments
Many packaging materials are easily affected by moisture in high humidity environments, causing the food or other products in the package to become damp, or even moldy or deteriorate. Alox film can effectively prevent moisture penetration and keep the products in the package dry and fresh. This feature is especially important for products that need to be stored in a humid environment. For example, foods such as biscuits and dried fruits often need to be kept dry during long-term storage or transportation, otherwise they are easily damp and affect the quality. After packaging with Alox film, moisture ingress can be greatly reduced, the shelf life of the product can be extended, and its original taste and quality can be ensured.
In addition to food, Alox film also plays an important role in electronic product packaging. Electronic products and accessories often need to avoid the influence of humid environments on circuit boards and components. The high barrier properties of Alox film provide effective moisture protection and ensure the stability and service life of electronic products.
Stable performance under high temperature conditions
For many products that need to be stored and transported in high temperature environments, traditional packaging materials are prone to lose their barrier function due to the effect of high temperature, resulting in damage to the quality of the products inside the package. However, the gas and moisture permeability of Alox film is not affected by high temperature and can work stably at higher temperatures. This feature gives Alox film a unique advantage in dealing with extreme storage conditions. Especially in the food industry, some products need to be transported or stored in an environment above room temperature, such as ready meals, canned foods, etc. Alox film can effectively isolate the external temperature influence, keep the food inside the package fresh, and avoid quality loss caused by temperature changes.
Not only that, Alox film can also maintain its high performance during microwave heating, which makes it an ideal material for packaging ready-to-eat foods, fast food and other foods that need to be heated in a microwave oven. Unlike aluminum foil or metallized film, Alox film can not only withstand high temperatures, but also ensure that the quality of packaged food is not affected during the heating process, avoiding uneven heating or leakage due to performance problems of the packaging material.
Economic and environmental benefits brought by thinning design
In addition to its gas and moisture barrier performance, another unique feature of Alox film is its thinning ability. Since the barrier performance of Alox film is not limited by the thickness of the base film, the thickness of the packaging material can be greatly reduced, thereby reducing the use of raw materials for packaging. This not only reduces production costs, but also reduces environmental burden, which is in line with the current trend of sustainable development and environmental protection.
With the increasing environmental protection requirements, Alox film has become an ideal recyclable and environmentally friendly packaging material. It can reduce the use of plastics and other packaging materials while ensuring the packaging effect, reduce pollution to the environment, and help the packaging industry develop in a green and environmentally friendly direction.
Wide application of Alox film
The excellent performance of Alox film has made it widely used in many fields. In addition to food packaging, Alox film is also widely used in pet food packaging, electronic product packaging, ready-to-eat meal packaging, paper-based liquid container packaging and other fields. Especially in ready-to-eat meal packaging, Alox film's resistance to high temperatures, moisture and microwave heating capabilities make it an ideal choice for the ready-to-eat food sector.
In addition, Alox film also has huge market potential in cosmetic packaging and facial mask packaging. Many cosmetics and skin care products need to avoid the intrusion of air and moisture to ensure the effectiveness and stability of the product. Alox film provides protection for these products with its high barrier properties.
