Aluminum Oxide-Coated Film (AlOx Film) is an advanced packaging material featuring a nano-thin, optically transparent aluminum oxide layer deposited onto flexible substrates. This cutting-edge technology delivers unparalleled moisture and gas barrier performance—surpassing conventional transparent materials like PVDC-coated films and EVOH coextrusions, while rivaling the protection of aluminum foil and metallized films.
Key Advantages:
- Barrier Invulnerability: Maintains consistent barrier efficiency under extreme temperatures and humidity, unaffected by environmental fluctuations.
- Thickness-Independent Performance: Enables significant material downgauging (thickness reduction) without compromising barrier integrity, reducing material costs and environmental footprint.
- Dual-Function Innovation: Uniquely combines high barrier properties with optical clarity, allowing product visibility while extending shelf life—a critical advantage unachievable with opaque metalized alternatives.
- Process Resilience: Microwave-safe and retortable (up to 135°C), overcoming the limitations of aluminum foil and metallized films in direct heating applications.
Sustainable & Functional Benefits:
- 100% recyclable and compatible with eco-conscious packaging initiatives
- High printability for brand customization
- Lightweight design reduces transportation emissions
