Highly adhesive metallized CPP film: an oxygen barrier that protects food and product quality

May 16,2024

In industries such as food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, product quality and freshness are one of the factors that consumers pay most attention to. However, these products often face a common challenge - oxygen attack. Oxygen, as a catalyst for many chemical reactions, will accelerate the oxidation of fats and fading of pigments in food, leading to a decline in product quality. Fortunately, high-adhesion metallized CPP film provides us with an effective solution with its unique metal coating technology.

oxygen threat
Oxygen is everywhere and is an essential component of life on Earth, but it is also the catalyst for many chemical reactions. In the food field, oxygen will accelerate the oxidation process of fat, causing food to deteriorate, stink, and lose its original color and flavor. In the field of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, oxygen also accelerates the oxidative failure of active ingredients, reducing the effectiveness and service life of the product.

Oxygen barrier function of highly bonding metallized CPP film
High-bonding metallized CPP film forms a strong and dense metal coating by coating a layer of metal (usually aluminum) on the surface of its CPP substrate. This metal coating has excellent oxygen barrier properties and can effectively prevent the penetration of oxygen. It acts like a solid barrier, isolating the product inside the package from the external environment, creating a stable storage environment for the product.

protection of food
For food, the oxygen barrier function of high-bonding metallized CPP film means that food can maintain its color, flavor and texture for a longer period of time. Whether it is meat, vegetables or baked goods, as long as it is packaged with this film, its shelf life can be effectively extended and quality degradation caused by oxidation can be reduced. This is crucial to maintaining the freshness and taste of food, meeting consumer demand for high-quality food.

Protection of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics
Likewise, the oxygen barrier function of highly adhesive metallized CPP films also provides important protection for pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. In the field of pharmaceuticals, oxidative failure of active ingredients is a common problem, which can cause drugs to lose their original efficacy. The high-adhesion metallized CPP film can effectively prevent the penetration of oxygen, thereby preventing the oxidative failure of active ingredients and ensuring the quality and effectiveness of medicines. In the field of cosmetics, metal plating can also protect the active ingredients in cosmetics, prevent their failure due to oxidation, and maintain the durability and effect of cosmetics.

Highly adhesive metallized CPP film provides us with an effective oxygen barrier solution with its unique metal coating technology. It not only protects food from oxygen and extends its shelf life, but also ensures the quality and effectiveness of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. With the continuous advancement of science and technology and the continuous development of the market, we believe that high-adhesion metallized CPP films will play a more important role in the future packaging industry, bringing us more high-quality, safe and reliable packaging products.
