The Modern Packaging Film
Cast Polypropylene (CPP)
CPP can generally be classified into the following types of films
How can laminated packaging reduce costs? Ensuring uniform thickness is key to maintaining protective functions.Taking barrier functional materials as an example, the uniformity of the barrier layer directly affects overall barrier performance. The barrier layer is the most critical part of a barrier film,
Improper heat sealing parameters
The heat sealing temperature should be precisely adjusted according to the material properties, thickness, and the number of sealing passes. For repeated sealing in the same area, a slight reduction in temperature is recommended to prevent material degradation. Insufficient sealing pressure may result in weak seals, while excessive pressure can lead to material extrusion or deformation, necessitating an optimal balance. The sealing time must be carefully aligned with the temperature and material characteristics, and it is advisable to fine-tune these parameters through rigorous trial validation.
Market Demand
China’s pet food industry has witnessed rapid growth in recent years, with the market expected to exceed RMB 200 billion by 2025. As a critical part of the value chain, the packaging sector is growing at a compound annual rate of over 10%, driven by the following key factors:
