Film Lamination
Noupack has sufficient capacity to meet the demands of film lamination production.
What's Film Lamination?
Thermal Lamination
Thermal lamination provides a stronger, more durable bond using heat. The main features of thermal lamination are:
- Uses heat-activated adhesive that melts when passed through heated rollers in the laminator
- Provides a strong, durable bond suitable for frequently handled materials
- Can handle a wide range of materials and thicknesses
- Eliminates air bubbles for a smooth, clear finish
- Requires warm-up time before use
- Not suitable for heat-sensitive materials like thermal paper or certain photos
Cold Adhesive Lamination
Cold adhesive lamination is safer for heat-sensitive items and easier to use but may not bond as effectively with thicker materials. The main features of cold adhesive lamination are:
- Uses pressure-sensitive adhesive that bonds materials together without heat
- Safer for heat-sensitive materials and documents
- Easier and faster to use, with no warm-up time required
- Can be used for virtually all flat items
Benefits of Film Lamination
Increased Durability: Laminated materials are more resistant to tearing, bending, and moisture damage.
Enhanced Appearance: Lamination can add a glossy or matte finish that improves the visual appeal of printed items.
Protection Against UV Light: Laminated surfaces can help prevent fading due to exposure to sunlight.
Improved Shelf Life: Products with laminated packaging often have a longer shelf life due to enhanced protection against environmental factors.

Common Materials Used in Composite Packaging and Properties
Aluminum Foil
Aluminum foil offers excellent barrier properties, effectively preventing moisture, oxygen, and light from penetrating, which helps maintain food quality and freshness. It is lightweight, easy to process, and recyclable, making it suitable for various food packaging applications.
Nylon (Polyamide)
Nylon possesses good mechanical strength and abrasion resistance, along with high barrier performance. It is suitable for food packaging that requires resistance to high temperatures and freezing, effectively extending the shelf life of products.
Polyester (PET)
Polyester materials have high transparency and excellent optical properties along with good barrier performance. They are commonly used in beverage bottles and other packaging, providing resistance against moisture and oxygen ingress.
Ethylene-Vinyl Alcohol Copolymer (EVOH)
BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene)
CPP (Cast Polypropylene)
Kraft Paper
Polyethylene (PE)
