Packaging Film

All types of pre-laminated packaging lms, thicknesses and sizes are available.

*Thickness units

Mil - 0.001 inch, ex) 3 mils = 0.003 x 25.4mm = 0.0762mm = 76.2 microns

Micron - 1/1,000,000m (1/1,000mm = 0.001mm), ex.) 100 microns = 100/25.4 = 3.93mils

MM - 0.15mm = 150 microns

*MVTR

The Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate (MVTR) is the rate that water vapor passes through a specic area of barrier material. MVTR is measured in grams of water vapor per

100 square inches of barrier per 24 hours (g/100 in.2/24 h).

EIA 583 Packaging Material Standards for Moisture-Sensitive Items denes a Class 1 barrier as having an MVTR of <0.02 g/100 in.2/24 h. A Class 2 barrier is set at <0.08 g/100

in.2/24 h.
