Cast Polypropylene Films
Cast Polypropylene (CPP) Films are one of the leading packaging
materials used for film extrusion and has in recent years benefited
versus cellophane, metals and paper on account of its superior puncture
resistance, low sealing threshold and competitive price. Cast
Polypropylene Films are available either as Cast Film or bi-axially
orientated PP (BOPP). The film market may be divided in to three main
sectors:
- Food and Confectioneries
- Tobacco
- Clothing
|
The food and confectioneries sector is
the largest of the film markets with usage ranging from confectioneries
to crisps and biscuits. Tobacco products represent a significant market
for PP (second largest after food and confectioneries). Rigid packaging
subdivides into a multitude of packaging applications from caps and
closures to pallets and crates.
