High Performance Metallized PET Film (VMPET-GZ / GF / JQ Series)
CaiLong High Performance Metallized PET Film is an engineered VMPET family covering ultra-high barrier, high aluminum-layer adhesion, and chemical-coating enhanced architectures.
It is designed for converters and brand owners whose laminate structures cannot rely on “generic” metallized films — and where the priority is to control oxygen/moisture ingress, avoid Al pick-off or delamination, and maintain stability during high-speed converting and post-processing.
Three focused sub-series (what most buyers compare):
-
VMPET-GZ Series (Ultra-High Barrier): pushed barrier envelope for longer shelf life and “replace/reduce foil” strategies in selective laminate stacks; selected grades with published values around WVTR ≤0.3 g/m²·24h and OTR ≤0.1 cc/m²·24h.
-
VMPET-GF Series (High-Adhesion): aluminum-layer adhesion typically targeted at ≥2.5 N/15mm to reduce metal transfer risk during aggressive printing, solvent/solventless lamination, and fast unwind/slitting.
-
VMPET-JQ Series (Chemical-Coating Enhanced): primer/chemical coating system to further raise metallization consistency and bond reliability; suitable for humidity/heat cycles and more demanding laminates (steam/boiling capable on relevant grades; retort ≤121°C on specific types — verify per structure and adhesive/ink system).
Why specify “high performance” instead of standard VMPET:
-
More predictable barrier: tighter WVTR/OTR control for dry foods, powders, oil/spice, coffee & tea where shelf life is a KPI.
-
Delamination-prevention focus: Al-bond reliability is engineered, not assumed.
-
Converting stability: attention to surface tension, COF/shrinkage and metallization uniformity for high-speed FFS and laminate lines.
-
Compliance framework: managed under references to FDA / EU / REACH / RoHS pathways and food-contact standards such as GB 4806.7 (final confirmation per grade, adhesive/ink system and end-use).
Typical laminate roles & applications:
-
Structures: printing web / middle barrier web — e.g. PETprint / VMPET(GZ/GF/JQ) / PE(CPP).
-
Applications: snacks & biscuits, nuts & dried fruits, coffee/tea & powdered drinks, chocolate/confectionery, spices & flavorings, dehydrated foods, and selected pharma/nutraceutical sachets or secondary barrier laminates.
Recommendation: we validate the chosen sub-series with your adhesive/ink system and seal condition (steam/boil/retort, if applicable) before full-volume release.
