Single layer (monolayer) films

Polyethylene: LLDPE, LDPE.

LDPE (low density polyethylene) and LLDPE (linear low density polyethylene) are being produced by extrusion of melted mass to expand the film. It is used as sealing layer in different laminates as well as separate packaging material. Polyethylene can be completely recycled and used repeatedly. LLDPE possess more puncture resistance comparing to LDPE.

Our LDPE film can be used in direct contact with food products. Usually products that do not require high barrierity can be packed in this film. We can supply polyethylene film in thicknesses from 24 to 170 microns with HD Flexo print applied. Upon the customer's request we can supply receive colored film, which is extruded with a color component. Our LDPE film can be used in direct contact with food products. Usually products that do not require high barrierity can be packed in this film.

Our films are characterized by high flexibility and strength. They are successfully run on HFFS (horizontal form-fill-seal) and VFFS (vertical form-fill-seal) machines. The advantage of these films are possibility of welding both A to A, and A to B sides.

The most popular choice for :

• - frozen food (frozen fish, berries, vegetables)
• - milk packaging (black&white film)
• - bakery articles (breads, bagels, pitas, tortillas)
• - hygienic articles (toilet paper, personal care)
• - household
• - garden soil

Besides monolayer films for packaging we also advise using laminates, consisting of different films, as BOPP, PET, LLDPE, also metalized.

Polypropylene: CPP, OPP, BOPP

Polypropylene is the world's second-most widely produced synthetic plastic, after polyethylene. BOPP is widely used as a packaging material for packaging products such as snack foods, fresh produce and confectionery. Polypropylene is recyclable and has the number "5" as its resin identification code.

Polypropylene films are characterized by high clarity, good optics and rigidness. Biaxial orientation (BOPP) increases strength and clarity of film. Ability to use 20 microns film and to keep required rigidness increases the output of this film.

Usually used to pack:

• - ice creams
• - pasta
• - chocolate
• - chips and snacks
• - confectionary products
• - tea
• - disposable goods

Olpo group Sp. z o.o. supplies CPP, OPP and BOPP films with print up to 10 colors in Flexo HD. Pearl and metalized films can be delivered upon the request.

Above films are perfectly run on Horizontal Form Fill Seal (HFFS) machines as well as Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) machines:

Laminates for general purposes

Lamination is a process which combines two or more films into a sandwich structure. A laminating machine covers one layer of film with adhesive coating before pressing it to a second layer. We are using a solvent-free lamination.

Laminates increase puncture resistance, overall strength of packing material and barrier properties. High-quality raw materials by reputable suppliers guarantee our laminates to have unique optics and high hot tack force. Tack force is very important indicator when it comes to Vertical Form Fill and Seal packaging (VFFS), as running film should be strong enough to hold the content that falls from some height without tearing. The filling method is basically to fill the product into the package from a certain height which would cause strong impact to the bottom of the package. If the bottom of package cannot withstand the impact, it would break so there is a package breakage.

Every laminate can be printed up to 10 colors using Flexo HD technique with inside printing. The surface can be either glossy or matt. We suggest 3-layered laminates (triplex) for more demanding products.

Our company also supplies laminates with polyethylene as a sealing layer with BOPP, CPP, BOPET, and BOPET met. Our technology allows applying different coatings, namely easy-peel, anti-fog, open-close and UV blocker, matt and gloss finishes.

Usually used to pack:
