Specification
8079-O aluminum foil is the preferred barrier material for pharmaceutical blister packaging.
Its excellent barrier properties enable it to effectively maintain odor and freshness in flexible packaging products such as coffee and snacks (e.g., stand-up pouches).
Liquid packaging composites used in dairy products and beverages require absolute integrity.
8079-O aluminum foil provides consistent quality for technical applications such as insulation materials and cable shielding.

FAQ：What distinguishes the 8079-O alloy from other aluminum alloys for flexible packaging applications? The 8079-O alloy offers an ideal combination of iron and silicon content, which results in increased strength and barrier properties as compared to other alloys, while offering superior formability with exceptionally few pinholes for enhanced reliability in demanding packaging applications.
Can your foil be used for pharmaceutical blister packaging? Yes, our 8079-O foil is produced in certified facilities and manufactured to pharmaceutical standards, with a controlled thickness and excellent forming characteristics to make perfect blisters while providing complete protection of the product.
What is theorder minimum for custom widths? There is no minimum order quantity for custom slit widths, but the order minimum is three tons, which may be split between specific specifications to meet your production needs while maintaining costs.
How consistent is the thickness of the foil across the jumbo rolls? We maintain a thickness tolerance of +/- 3% through a system of real-time monitoring, so you have outstanding consistency throughout every jumbo roll and across production runs.
What certifications does your 8079-O foil have? Our foil has FDA, EU and ISO certifications for food contact, and we maintain full traceability and documentation to meet international regulatory needs.
Do you supply foil with specialized surface treatments?Yes, we provide a number of surface treatments, including corona treatment and chemical priming, to increase lamination and printing adhesion to meet your application requirements.
What is the lead time for shipment of a container load?Typical lead times are in the 25-35 days range. Expedited options are available for urgent needs, where we ensure there is no supply gap for your production.
What is your price compared to a local company?Our initial price may be slightly higher, but our superior quality provides a better yield and fewer production concerns, which results in a lower total cost of ownership.
