Extend bakery product shelf life with OPP films
Bakery items protected by packaging made with coated OPPalyte™ and Bicor™ or high-barrier Metallyte™ oriented polypropylene (OPP) films retain their fresh-baked aroma, texture and taste longer than products wrapped in standard, uncoated OPP film.
Our special water-based coatings provide exceptional barrier protection from odors and moisture. For high protection from oxygen, choose transparent PVOH (polyvinyl alcohol)-coated Bicor, or for white and metal appearance, our Metallyte™ MU842.
