Market Definition

Metalized Film Flexible Packaging is generally a polymer film with a metal coating. Aluminium is the most often utilized metal. However, chromium and nickel are also used for coating. Metals are normally heated in a vacuum to create these films. Metalized films are formed when droplets of these metals condense on polymer films. Metalized flexible films have a polished metallic surface which are highly combustible, and comparable to aluminium foils. On the other hand, these films are considerably thinner than aluminium foils, making them both cheaper and lighter. The extensive adoption of film flexible packaging is due in great part to several technological advancements in the industry.
