The use of metalized polyester films in flexible packaging structures has become increasingly popular due to their ability to provide high-barrier properties. However, challenges related to poor adhesion of the metal layer to the base polyester film have been observed, leading to laminate failure and decreased product performance.
To address this issue, market players are developing advanced films with enhanced metal adhesion properties, aiming to provide cost-effective solutions for superior barrier applications in demanding environments. These films are engineered with specific treatments, such as corona treatment, to ensure strong adhesion between the metal layer and the composite surface.
