Lidding Films

A lidding film has to seal to the tray you already use. Every lidding assessment therefore starts with the tray material and the sealing conditions.

Typical formats

  • Peelable lidding
  • Weld-seal lidding
  • Anti-fog lidding
  • Ovenable and microwaveable lidding
  • Reclosable lidding

Typical structures

  • PET/PE
  • APET-compatible peelable
  • CPET-compatible ovenable
  • PP-compatible
