Skin Films
Our skin films are a special type of plastic film used in the packaging industry to securely and attractively package products. They offer an excellent tight fit and are sealed onto rigid films. The term “skin” comes from the fact that the film wraps around the product like a “second skin,” providing optimal protection while keeping the product clearly visible.
Properties of Skin Films
- Tight fit: Skin films conform exactly to the shape of the product, wrapping around it like a “skin” without damaging it.
- Transparency and clarity: Skin films are usually transparent, ensuring optimal product visibility.
- Protection: Skin films protect against external influences such as oxygen, moisture, and mechanical damage.
- Flexibility: Skin films are flexible and can be used for products of various shapes and sizes.
Materials for Skin Films
- PA/EVOH/PE: Commonly used for skin packaging due to excellent clarity, good flexibility, and strong adhesion.
Applications of Skin Films

- Especially for fresh, delicate products like meat or fish, skin films protect against external influences and extend shelf life.
Advantages of Skin Films
- Optimal product visibility: Being transparent, skin films keep the product clearly visible, improving presentation and marketing in retail.
- Secure protection: The tight fit effectively shields the product from dust, moisture, and mechanical damage.
- Space-saving: Because the skin film fits the product exactly, it allows efficient use of space for storage and transport.
