Uniflex tray lidding films packaging

Uniflex manufactures flexo printed films specifically designed for both thermoformed and pre-made PP & PE trays. Our laminated lidding films (or resealable) are suitable for the packaging modified atmosphere (MAP), so you can create a custom atmosphere that extends shelf life and explodes flavour.

For PE trays we recommend using material composite PET+PE. For PP trays it is optimal to use PET+PP or PET+PE. Depending on the product type and required barrier properties, the thickness of the PE layer is 40-90 µm, and PET layer thickness is 12-23 µm.

Our packaging experts can add an optional EVOH layer for maximum barrier performance. Our PE film, fortified with EVOH grades, delivers an impenetrable barrier against gas and water vapour permeability. Minimise spoilage and maximise freshness with this innovative packaging solution.
