This film has excellent handling properties and is used for printing
& lamination in Flexible Packaging Industries. In this chemically
coated film is also available on single side to improve adhesion for
printing or coating. Metallised Polyester Film in Silver (Unlacquered)
& Gold (Lacquered) is also available for Packaging Industries.
As it prevents the food articles for proper aroma and resists moisture
as it has good moisture barrier (MVTR/OTR) properties. It is also
used for easthetics application.
