Pallet packing: Export plywood pallets can be used according to roll dimensions, loading requirements and destination regulations.

Container loading: Loading quantity depends on film density, roll dimensions, pallet configuration and legal weight limits.

Delivery terms: EXW, FOB, CNF and DDU can be discussed.

Lead time: The reference production time is approximately 10–14 days after specification and deposit confirmation. Printed or special structures may require additional time.

What is PET/PA/PE lamination film?

PET/PA/PE lamination film is a multilayer flexible packaging material. PET provides printability and dimensional stability, PA provides toughness and puncture resistance, and PE provides moisture resistance and heat sealing.

What is PET/PA/PE film used for?

It is commonly evaluated for vacuum packaging, frozen food, liquid or sauce pouches, pet food, printed roll stock and industrial packaging. The exact structure must be selected according to the packed product and process.

Is PET/PA/PE film a high-barrier film?

It can provide improved gas and mechanical protection compared with simpler PE or PET/PE structures, but the phrase “high barrier” should be supported by target OTR and WVTR values. Very oxygen-sensitive products may require EVOH, PVDC, AlOx, metallized film or aluminum foil.

Can PET/PA/PE film be used for vacuum packaging?

Yes, suitable structures can be used for vacuum packaging because PA improves toughness and puncture resistance while PE provides the sealing layer. Film thickness, vacuum level, product edges and seal strength should be tested.

Can PET/PA/PE film be used for frozen food?

It can be suitable for frozen food when the selected PA, PE, adhesive and total structure maintain impact resistance, seal integrity and flex-crack resistance at the required storage temperature.

Is PET/PA/PE film suitable for retort pouches?

Not automatically. Standard PE sealant layers may not be suitable for retort sterilization. A retort application requires a specially engineered and validated structure, often using a heat-resistant sealant such as retort-grade CPP or another approved material.

Is PET/PA/PE film food safe?

Food-contact suitability depends on the exact resins, inks, adhesives, additives and destination-market regulations. Request a food-contact declaration and applicable migration or compliance test reports for the final structure. RoHS alone is not a food-contact approval.

What thicknesses and widths are available?

The original product specification lists widths from 160mm to 2600mm and total thicknesses from 0.045mm to 0.35mm. Final availability depends on layer design, printing, slitting and production requirements.

Can PET/PA/PE film be custom printed?

Yes. Custom printing can be discussed for roll stock and converted pouches. Provide artwork, color count, printing area, surface finish, roll direction and annual volume for evaluation.

What information is needed to calculate shelf life?

Provide the product's oxygen and moisture sensitivity, target shelf life, filling process, storage temperature, package dimensions, headspace, OTR, WVTR and sealing conditions. Shelf life cannot be predicted accurately from the material name alone.

Can PET/PA/PE film be used on VFFS or HFFS machines?

Yes, suitable roll stock can be engineered for vertical or horizontal form-fill-seal machines. Machine model, forming method, sealing-jaw type, speed, roll dimensions, registration requirements and unwind direction should be provided.

Are samples available?

Stock samples or trial material may be available for checking appearance, print quality, sealing, puncture resistance and machine compatibility. Courier cost and custom trial conditions should be confirmed with HSQY.

What is the MOQ for PET/PA/PE lamination film?

The listed standard MOQ is 1,000kg. Custom printing, special resin grades, unusual widths or application-specific structures may require a different minimum quantity.

How do I request a quotation?

Send the packed product, film or pouch dimensions, thickness, quantity, printing requirements, machine type, filling and storage conditions, barrier targets, destination market and delivery port through the HSQY contact page.
