Product Description
Coextruded white opaque, low density, biaxially oriented polypropylene film, heat sealable on the inside. The treated layer must be printed and varnished to provide the necessary slip properties for optimum machinability. Used mostly as a single web, 38MO447 gives outstanding results on the HFFS packaging machines, and is particularly well designed for the ice-cream applications.
