Printed film for cosmetics, powders and detergents is a type of packaging material designed to store and protect products while providing an aesthetic appearance. This type of film is often printed with colourful and attractive patterns to attract the attention of potential customers. Printed films can be made from a variety of materials including foils, laminates and papers. These materials can be tailored to the specific needs of different cosmetic products, such as providing barrier properties to protect the contents from oxygen, moisture and light.
Some common types of films used for powders, detergents and cosmetic packaging are presented below:
Polyethylene (PE) film – is a type of plastic often used for flexible packaging. It is lightweight and provides good protection against moisture and has good barrier properties.
