Specification
The versatility of food foil is another reason that it is so widely used. It can be used in various ways to accommodate a variety of different packing and cooking situations, from simple household food storage to commercial kitchen preparation.
Food foil may be used to wrap food for refrigerator/freezer storage and prevent frostbite/cross-contamination when stored at low temperatures. Food foil is also used as a non-stick food wrapping material, to wrap whole chickens, potatoes, vegetables, etc. while cooking; it works by locking in moisture and creating even cooking, while keeping grill grates and baking pans clean.
In the case of commercial kitchens, food foil is ideal for packaging prepared foods ahead of time so that they may be delivered to or served at an event; food foil provides a clean and sanitary solution for transporting food.

In the the various thicknesses offered by aluminum foil in the household segment are equally as important as the 14 micron or Heavy-Duty thickness as part of a complete product system.
The 8-10 Micron (Ultra-Thin) Aluminum Foil is a very lightweight and cost-effective way to wrap small, light items (like candies, cookies, fruit, etc.) that are intended for immediate eating, or for short-term refrigerator use.The thin nature of this type of foil allows for easy tearing and shaping, making it perfectly suited for quick daily packing; however, it would not hold up to high-temperature cooking, nor would it support heavy weight items.
The 12 micron (Standard Household) Aluminum Foil is the most common thickness and is used in the home for day-to-day purposes. It Provides a moderate amount of strength and flexibility and works well for most household "normal" conditions, covering food serving dishes, wrapping small quantities of food that have already been cooked, or in the oven for a short period of time. It will meet the needs of families with light-weight packing needs while balancing usability and the cost of packaging.
The super substantial alternative is an 18-20 micron aluminium foil that is used in situations requiring many products, such as large whole food items (like complete turkeys), and heat-tolerant food preparation methods (grilling/baking) used for an extended period. This type of foil is often used for bulk packs in commercial catering and food production; supplying the producer with a product that can withstand extreme temperatures while still being able to hold still without deteriorating or deforming when subjected to extreme abuse.
Since this type of heavy duty foil is not suitable for every type of packing method, there are many other thickness options available. The average household or light commercial product will typically choose a 14 micron aluminium food foil for packing because it offers the best value for the money and is durable enough to provide a high level of performance. However, heaviest amounts of food are typically found using 18-20 micron options in their respective fields.
As a result, the increasing popularity of high-quality, heavy-duty, 14-micron aluminium food foil will lead to increased demand in the aluminium food foil industry because consumers have become more concerned with food safety, preservation and convenience.
The HTMM Aluminum Foil factory, which has been producing high-quality aluminum foil for over 10 years, will continue to improve the quality of the products produced and provide customized solutions to meet the specific needs of customers worldwide. The HTMM Aluminum Foil factory will provide safe, high-quality aluminum foil packaging to households, restaurant businesses, and food manufacturers throughout the world.
