CareFoil-PAP is our high barrier film structure which incorporates encapsulated aluminum foil as the barrier layer of this film. The exterior high grade PET serves as a great base for printed bags. The interior PE sealant layer is non-reactive and is heat sealable. CareFoil-PAP is great for FDA applications where long shelf life, or susceptibility to spoilage is a concern.
