HSQY PVC/PE Laminated Thermoforming Film

PVC/PE Laminated Thermoforming Film

HSQY PVC/PE Laminated Thermoforming Film is a multilayer rigid packaging material combining a thermoformable PVC structural layer with a polyethylene sealing layer. It is designed for suppository packaging, pharmaceutical unit-dose packaging, selected medical packaging and qualified food-packaging applications.

The rigid PVC layer provides dimensional stability, mechanical strength and thermoforming performance, while the PE layer provides a heat-sealable contact surface, additional flexibility and moisture resistance.

PVC/PE laminate can be processed on compatible thermoform-fill-seal equipment to form individual cavities, fill the packaged product and create a sealed package. Peelable structures can be evaluated when easy opening is required, while stronger sealing structures can be selected for applications requiring higher package integrity.

HSQY also supplies higher-barrier laminate structures including PVC/EVOH/PE and PVC/PVDC/PE for applications requiring lower oxygen or moisture transmission than standard PVC/PE.

What Is PVC/PE Laminated Film?

PVC/PE laminated film is a multilayer thermoforming material consisting of a rigid polyvinyl chloride layer laminated with a polyethylene layer.

The PVC layer provides the structural body and forming characteristics, while the PE layer provides sealing functionality and an additional contact surface for applications where PE properties are preferred.

The material is commonly supplied in rolls for thermoform-fill-seal systems used to produce suppository cavities, pharmaceutical unit-dose packs and other formed packages.

How PVC/PE Film Works in Pharmaceutical Packaging

Thermoformable PVC Layer

Rigid PVC is heated and formed into defined packaging cavities. The correct PVC thickness depends on cavity depth, dimensions, line speed and the mechanical requirements of the finished pack.

Heat-Sealable PE Layer

The polyethylene layer supports heat-sealing performance and can be formulated for peelable opening or stronger closure characteristics depending on the package design.

Product Contact and Compatibility

For suppositories, liquid medicines, semi-liquid formulations or medical-related products, the complete laminate should be evaluated for product compatibility, sealing performance and applicable packaging requirements before commercial qualification.

Key Features of PVC/PE Laminated Film

Good Thermoformability

Rigid PVC provides good forming performance for defined cavities and packaging geometries when heating and forming conditions are correctly matched to the material thickness.

Heat-Sealing Performance

The PE surface can provide reliable sealing when paired with the appropriate mating surface and controlled sealing temperature, pressure and dwell time.

Peelable Opening

Selected PVC/PE structures can be designed for peel-open packaging, making them useful for suppositories and other unit-dose products where convenient opening is important.

Moisture Resistance

The PE layer contributes moisture resistance. For products with defined moisture-sensitivity requirements, buyers should request measured WVTR data for the exact laminate.

Mechanical Strength

The rigid PVC layer provides structural support during forming, filling, sealing, cutting, packing and transportation.

Customized Barrier Structures

For products requiring substantially higher oxygen or moisture protection, PVC/EVOH/PE or PVC/PVDC/PE structures can be evaluated instead of standard PVC/PE.

PVC/PE Laminated Film Applications

Suppository Packaging

PVC/PE is widely used for thermoformed suppository packaging where formability, heat sealing and peel-open functionality must work together in one packaging structure.

Pharmaceutical Unit-Dose Packaging

PVC/PE laminate can be evaluated for suitable liquid or semi-liquid pharmaceutical unit-dose packs produced on thermoform-fill-seal machinery.

OTC and Healthcare Packaging

Selected structures can be used for healthcare and over-the-counter packaging after confirming product compatibility, barrier requirements and destination-market documentation.

Selected Food Packaging

Suitable PVC/PE formulations can also be evaluated for thermoformed meat, poultry, fish, cheese, pasta and other food-packaging applications when food-contact requirements have been confirmed for the exact production structure.

Peelable PVC/PE Film for Suppository Packaging

Peelable PVC/PE structures are particularly useful for suppository packaging because the PE layer can be formulated to provide package integrity during filling, storage and distribution while allowing controlled opening by the user.

Peel force should be evaluated with the exact PVC/PE construction, sealing temperature, pressure, dwell time and production machine. Excessively low peel strength can compromise package integrity, while excessive peel strength can make opening difficult.

How PVC/PE Film Is Used on a Form-Fill-Seal Line

Film Unwinding

PVC/PE rollstock is mounted on the packaging machine and unwound according to the specified orientation.

Preheating and Forming

The film is heated and formed into the required cavity geometry using the thermoforming system and mold.

Product Filling

The suppository, liquid, semi-liquid or other approved product is filled into the formed cavity under the required production conditions.

Cooling Where Required

Products such as suppositories may require controlled cooling or solidification before final sealing and cutting.

Heat Sealing and Cutting

The package is sealed under controlled conditions and then cut or separated into the required unit-dose format.

How to Select PVC/PE Laminated Film

Packaged product: Specify suppository, oral liquid, semi-liquid dose, medical product, food product or another application.

Total thickness: Provide the required laminate thickness and tolerance according to cavity depth and rigidity.

PVC thickness: Confirm the structural layer required for forming and finished-package strength.

PE thickness: Specify the sealing layer requirement according to seal strength, peelability and contact conditions.

Roll width: Provide exact web width and slitting tolerance required by the packaging machine.

Core and roll dimensions: Provide core diameter, maximum roll outside diameter and preferred roll weight.

Forming geometry: Provide cavity size, cavity depth, mold drawing and production-line information.

Seal requirement: Specify peelable or stronger sealing performance and the required opening force where applicable.

Barrier target: Provide OTR and WVTR requirements if barrier performance affects product stability or shelf life.

Filling conditions: Provide product fill temperature and any relevant chemical or oil-contact requirements.

Destination market: State the country or region where the finished packaging will be used so applicable documentation can be reviewed.

How to Validate PVC/PE Film Before Bulk Ordering

Thermoforming Trial

Test the material on the actual production machine and mold. Evaluate cavity definition, corner thickness, shrinkage, dimensional stability and trim quality.

Seal-Window Test

Evaluate sealing performance across a suitable range of temperatures, pressures and dwell times to establish a stable production window.

Peel-Strength Test

For peel-open packs, evaluate opening force and consistency after production, storage and aging under the intended conditions.

Barrier Test

When moisture or oxygen transmission affects product stability, request or verify WVTR and OTR data for the exact laminate structure under relevant test conditions.

Product Compatibility Test

For pharmaceutical products, test the laminate with the actual formulation and filling process. Evaluate seal integrity, appearance, contact compatibility and storage stability according to the applicable qualification program.

PVC/PE Sheet and Roll Packing Details

Sample Packing: Sample sheets can be protected in suitable bags and cartons according to the current sample arrangement.
