There are multiple common flow wrap films that are used:
Polypropylene family (PP) – This film type is commonly used for snack foods, candy, baked good, etc. It can be transparent, printed or opaque. It’s combined with coating that helps protect the film and product. PP offers limited protection from moisture and oxygen.
Polyethylene family (PE) – PE includes low density, linear low density and high-density types of films. Low and linear low-density films share similar properties: good clarity, highly flexible and can be heat sealed using special sealing systems. Both low and linear low-density films are used for stretch and shrink wraps, bags, pizzas, bakery goods among other similar applications. High density PE has lower clarity and is used along with EVA for wrapping frozen food, crackers, bread bags, cereal box liners, etc.
Polyester Films (PET) – PET is often combined in laminations with other films as an outer layer. Metallicized packages for potato chips and pretzels or cook-in packaging are common uses. PET lamination offers light weight, resistance to water, and reflection of heat and UV. It preserves freshness and flavor while having scratch resistant properties for retail and transport.
