3. Usage Scope
PET twist film is suitable for candy, and various jerky twist packaging applications.
4. Specifications and Models
The film is available in different thicknesses (19um, 23um, 25um). The greatest width can reach 2000mm. It can meet various customer requirements.
5. PET twist film can replace PVC twist film
PET twist film offers unparalleled product performance. It can gradually replace PVC twist film.
1. Friendly
PET twist film is made of polyester and is a recyclable product. Harmless to human body and environment. In contrast, burning PVC releases methane. This is a substance linked to cancer. PVC products are strictly prohibited from contact with food in some countries. Some countries also ban the use of PVC film in the outer packaging of children’s products. Because PVC is harmful to the body and the environment.
2. Cost effective
PVC products require at least 28μ to meet the hardness and stiffness required for aluminizing and printing. It presents a rigid effect. PET products have sufficient strength and stiffness. It can be produced in different thicknesses. For example, 19μ is used for manual packaging of dried meat, fresh fruits or paper-plastic composite twist packaging. 23μ and 25μ are mainly used for candy and chocolate twist packaging.
3. Stable performance and high efficiency
The maximum speed of the PVC packaging machine is 1,000 pieces per minute. The PET packaging machine can reach 2,000 pieces per minute. Because PVC has poor brittleness and smoothness. Therefore, the film width is usually controlled at about 60cm. In comparison, PET film can be more than one meter wide. PET printing speed can exceed 200m/minute. It exceeds the 150m/minute limit of PVC. This highlights PET’s advantages in printing efficiency.
4. Beautiful and high-end
PET twist film has a stronger aluminum layer. Because protective resin (gold oil) is added during printing. So the pattern becomes bright and clear. Because PET has high rigidity and corrosion resistance. Hence, it is suitable for localized aluminum washing or laser processing to compress the information layer. This is employed to enhance the three-dimensional effect of printing. It leads to a substantial improvement in the quality of packaged products.
5. Safety
Domestic PET twist film has passed the US FDA. test. Products can be exported worldwide..
6. Packaging Forms
Twist packaging is one of the most traditional candy packaging methods. Twist packaging, pillow packaging and folding packaging are the three major packaging forms of candy. Twist packaging was originally made of PVC. There is now a transition to environmentally friendly PET twist film.
In the entire candy packaging pattern. Pillow packaging accounts for about 70%. Twist packaging accounts for about 15%. Folding packaging accounts for about 10%. Other packaging forms account for about 5%.. Twisted packaging has the longest history among candy packaging methods. Initially, it used paper material (glass paper) and was manually packaged.
In short, PET twist film provides a better solution for food packaging. It is environmentally friendly, practical, and efficient, showcasing outstanding performance and various advantages. This makes it an ideal choice for improving both the functionality and visual appeal of packaged products.
