About Bicor™ Films
Bicor films are transparent biaxially oriented polypropylene (OPP) films designed for flexible packaging applications. Available for use as monoweb or in laminates on horizontal form fill seal (HFFS), vertical form fill seal (VFFS) and overwrap equipment, Bicor films feature proprietary coating technologies using acrylic, polyvinylidene chloride (PVdC), polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) and low-temperature sealing coatings (LTSC) that deliver excellent performance for food and nonfood packaging needs.
Bicor films perform consistently on a full range of packaging machines and offer excellent graphics reproduction with a wide range of inks and adhesives.
