Film lamination — when it is worth it
If your product needs:
• protection against oxygen and water vapour (fresh/chilled, coffee, aromas),
• strength and puncture resistance (pet food, frozen food, non-food),
• stable running on the line (coefficient-of-friction control, clean start-ups),
• consistent branding (HD print, matt/gloss, 'alu-look'), then film lamination is the natural choice. A well-matched set of layers solves the barrier, the seal and the aesthetics all at once, simplifying life for production and purchasing.
Lamination on barrier film — OTR/WVTR and real freshness
Food quality is decided by the control of gases and moisture. High-barrier film lamination lets you precisely match OTR/WVTR to the product's requirements: from meat and cold cuts (MAP), through cheese and dairy, to coffee and spices. Metallised layers or special barrier coatings protect aroma and texture, reducing rejects and complaints. The result? Longer freshness, a repeatable appearance, a stable production plan.
Film lamination and multi-colour flexographic printing
Print and lamination are a duo. First, multi-colour flexographic printing delivers intense colours, clean typography and sharp detail, and then lamination protects the print, adds stiffness and a premium effect (matt/gloss contrast, metallised look). The design plan allows for technical zones — seals, easy-open notches, perforations — so that the artwork 'holds its place' and the code and date stay legible in every batch.
Film lamination + extra features
• Anti-fog — clarity in the chill and on the self-service shelf,
• Easy-open / easy-peel — quick opening without tearing the film,
• Macro-perforation — control of the 'breathing' of fresh products,
• Cold-seal (where required) — gentle packing of chocolates and bars with no risk of overheating,
• Matt/gloss varnishing — a premium effect without losing functionality.

Frequently asked questions
Film lamination is the process of joining two or more layers of material into a single packaging structure. This makes it possible to obtain better performance properties, such as greater durability, a suitable barrier and a better fit of the pack to the product's requirements.
Film lamination is used in order to improve the parameters of the pack and combine the advantages of different materials. The process can increase mechanical resistance, improve protection against moisture, oxygen or light, and also affect the aesthetics of the finished pack.
Film lamination is widely used in the food, cosmetics, chemical, pharmaceutical and industrial sectors. It is used wherever the pack must not only look good but also effectively protect the product during transport, storage and sale.
The most important benefits of film lamination include improved pack strength, the ability to obtain suitable barrier properties and better quality of the final product. Lamination also makes it possible to create more advanced packaging structures tailored to specific applications.
Yes, film lamination can significantly affect the appearance of the pack. It allows a more attractive finish, improves the presentation of the print and creates a pack that is both functional and visually appealing.
