Common Thicknesses for 8011 Food Grade Aluminium Household Foil and Typical Applications
9–12 µm Light wrapping, sandwiches, short-term food storage
13–18 µm Standard household cooking, baking, grilling
20–25 µm Heavy-duty use, freezer storage, large food portions
The Relationship Between Application and ThicknessIf 8011 Household Aluminium Foil is thinner than required, the following apply. It will tear easily, will not give good protection, and may provide inferior barrier properties.
If 8011 Household Aluminium Foil is thicker than required, the cost will be greater, the product will be inflexible, and it will create waste of unnecessary materials.
In addition, selecting the wrong width of the foil can create difficulties for the converter, which may lead to scrap and reduced efficiency when converting jumbo rolls into household foil.
How Are 8011 Household Aluminum Foil Prices Affected?Aluminum ingot price:Base cost fluctuates with the metal market
Thickness and width:Thicker and wider foil increases material cost
Surface quality:Higher cleanliness and finish raise processing costs
Order quantity:Larger volumes usually reduce unit price
Packaging & logistics:Export packaging and shipping costs
By understanding these factors, buyers can better manage and control the procurement costs of 8011 food-grade aluminum foils for residential use.
Frequently Asked Questions Regarding 8011 Aluminum Foil:Is it safe to use 8011 aluminum foil to wrap food? Yes, provided it is produced according to food-grade specifications, it is safe and free from any toxins.
