What are Lid Films?

Lid films are a thin layer of material utilized to pack containers like trays, cups, and tubs. It serves as a preventive barrier, protects freshness, and frequently suggests highlights like printability or peelability for branding usage. Generally, they are created from aluminum foil or plastic, as lidding films are crafted to align with needs like puncture resistance, heat resistance, and barrier characteristics against oxygen, moisture, and pollutants.

In current thermoformed tray and cup packaging, the lidding film operates as the “leading web”, which matches bottom materials such as PP, APET, or PS and current high-speed sealing lines. Actual designs include PE, PET, BOPP, and CPP, which rely on the needed sealing and barrier results.
