Thermoforming Films
Thermoforming films are specified in pairs: a forming bottom web and a non-forming top web. We assess both against your draw depth, product and machine.
Typical formats
- Soft forming webs
- Semi-rigid forming webs
- Non-forming top webs
- Skin films
Typical structures
- PA/PE
- PA/EVOH/PE
- APET/PE
- Mono-PE recyclable structures
To assess your requirement we need
- 01Machine (e.g. make and model)
- 02Draw depth and pack dimensions
- 03Bottom and top web specification
- 04Process (vacuum, MAP, skin)
Don’t have all of this? Send what you have and we’ll ask for the rest.
Before we propose an alternative
What we check before proposing an alternative.
- 01Draw depth affects the finished wall thickness and therefore the barrier. We look at the formed pack, not only the reel.
- 02Recyclable mono-PE structures are available, but they behave differently on the former and must be trialled.
