Metallized PET film is a type of plastic film that has been coated with a thin layer of metal, usually aluminum. This type of film offers several benefits:
Barrier properties: The metal coating provides an effective barrier against moisture, oxygen, and other gases, which helps to extend the shelf life of packaged goods.
Reflectivity: The metal coating also provides high reflectivity, which is useful in applications such as solar thermal collectors, insulation, and lighting fixtures.
Aesthetics: Metallized PET film gives a shiny, metallic appearance, which can be used to create an attractive and eye-catching packaging design, it also can be used in printing and laminate products, like labels and packaging.
Lightweight and Durability: PET film is a strong, lightweight material and is resistant to tearing, puncturing, and abrasion. Metallized PET film maintains these properties while also adding the benefits of the metal coating.
Cost-effective: Metallized PET film is a cost-effective alternative to aluminum foil, which is often used in applications that require a barrier or reflective layer.
Flexibility: Metallized PET film can be easily laminated, coated, printed and converted into various shapes, it can be used for different applications including: packaging, labels, flexible solar cells, and various industrial applications.
Recyclability: Metallized PET film can be recycled with regular PET film, it is a great eco-friendly option as it reduces waste and pollution.
