OPA films
OPA films
OPA films from mf-folien – Films for the perfect packaging. Even well-packaged foodstuffs can spoil over time. The main cause is the diffusion of oxygen through the packaging film. Due to its strength and good barrier properties, cast nylon film PA 6 is one of the preferred materials for the production of multi-layer packaging film.
Thanks to its good barrier properties, this film acts as a barrier layer against oxygen in packaging films. For many types of packaging, an even better oxygen barrier is required, which allows the penetration of significantly less oxygen through to the foodstuffs than conventional cast nylon films.
This can be achieved by the use of our biaxially-oriented polyamide film (OPA). Our OPA film has excellent properties for the most demanding applications, mainly in the field of foodstuffs packaging, but also for products in the non-food area. Thanks to its multi-layer construction, our co-extruded OPA film is tougher and more resistant to piercing than other mono-extruded OPA films available on the market.

Excellent properties

  • Outstanding tensile strength and resistance to piercing
  • Very good barrier properties against gases such as oxygen, carbon dioxide and aromas
  • High resistance to oils, fats, hydrocarbons and chemicals
  • Can be easily printed
  • For use over a wide temperature range
  • Very good laminating properties with other films

UOur OPA films are ideally suitable for the packaging of sensitive, deep-frozen and cooked foodstuffs, agricultural products, seafood or spirits products. Other major applications are found in the medical sector: blood-bags, infusion bags etc. OPA films are also used for packaging in the electronics and industrial area.
Our OPA films offer excellent gas and aroma barrier properties, improved resistance to wear, together with piercing and penetration resistance, good tear properties when opening the packaging, as well as mechanical strength, which is important during printing and laminating processes.
