Heat seal metalized films are usually designed with co-extrusion process and the outer layer of the film is coated with metal coatings such as aluminum, whereas the inner web is made of multi-layer laminate. Heat seal metalized films are specially designed to serve packaging applications that require high seal strengths. The heat seal metalized films form a very good barrier solution for general factors such as moisture, gasses, external heat, UV rays, etc. Hence, with low oxygen and air transmission rate, heat seal metalized films are ideal to preserve food products for the longer period of time. Also, heat seal metalized films have also emerged as a cost-effective alternative packaging solution for aluminum foil packaging.
