Key flexible packaging converters also expressed confidence that downward aluminum foil thickness trends would continue. Based on forecasted availability of 8-micron foils in the next 3-5 years, completely plastic-free pouch options may become feasible for certain applications. Dry food pouches already embrace ultra-thin foils down to 10 microns successfully.

Aluminum foil is a very versatile material with good formability, tight gauge control, and high purity. The most commonly used alloys for foil production include 3003 H24 aluminum foil which has excellent strength and softness properties. 3003 foil provides strength for shaping containers while maintaining flexibility. It can be easily formed into containers, trays, bowls and other types of food packaging through various methods like die cutting, thermoforming etc. Its dead fold properties allow creasing without cracking.

Alufoil 1235-O offers a good balance of strength and thickness, opening up many areas of application. With a thickness of only 0.07 g/m2, this non-stick paper adheres to food without losing its cooking properties. By improving the quality of the paper while maintaining its shape, designs can be easily created on canvas and cardboard. In addition, the 7-micron thickness of aluminum alloys in large parts can be transformed into special insulation parts and products made of high-tech metals.

HTMM is a professional food grade aluminum foil manufacturer, providing you with high quality 45cm extra wide premium heavy duty 20 micron thick kitchen aluminum foil. This heavy duty kitchen aluminum foil overcomes the shortcomings of ordinary kitchen aluminum foil with its superior performance.

Lacquered aluminum foil for semirigid containers and trays, commonly used alloy numbers are 8011 H24, 3003 H24, a variety of colors are available to increase the attractiveness of your aluminum foil containers.

8079 aluminum foil is used for flexible packaging lamination. The common thickness is 6-9 microns. There are also other thicknesses, which should be customized and selected according to the specific application.
