DUNMORE Introduces a New Bright Metallized LDPE Film Product

BRISTOL, Pa. (PRWEB) May 13, 2020

Dunmore announced today the introduction of a new bright metallized polyethylene (PE) film product. The new film has a print receptive surface that is compatible with various printing inks and formats. The metallized LDPE film can be used for products including labels, packaging, and other graphics applications. The aluminum coated PE film is an excellent choice for applications that require a higher degree of conformability.

Low density polyethylene (LDPE) film is a challenging material to metallize given the low heat tolerance and higher haze levels of the raw film. Oftentimes metallizing LDPE film creates a film that looks very dull. Since shelf appeal and attracting the consumers attention is critical, developing a product that provides a brilliant finish was the main challenge to overcome. With Dunmore's innovation, the company was able to solve this problem and produce a bright, printable, metallized polyethylene film.

The new metallized polyethylene film product is well suited for packaging and various graphics applications. The print receptive surface helps improve print quality and adhesion with a variety of printing formats. By utilizing an LDPE film, this metallized film provides greater design flexibility for conformable applications.

According to Neil Gillespie, Vice President of R&D, "Developing a bright, reflective metallized LDPE film presented various challenges during the development process. Through ingenuity and hard work, Dunmore has commercialized a product that will benefit the graphics industry."
