BOPE Film Biaxially Oriented Polyethylene Film
BOPE film is a biaxially oriented polyethylene film produced by stretching a polyethylene web in the machine and transverse directions. It combines clarity, tensile strength, puncture resistance, and printability for flexible packaging. When paired with compatible polyethylene sealant layers, BOPE can support mono-PE package designs; actual recyclability depends on the complete package, inks, adhesives, local collection, and recycling infrastructure.
As a Chinese BOPE manufacturer, we offer bespoke production solutions. We deliver on time within agreed lead times, providing you with cost-effective film solutions.
Features:
- Recyclable, eco-friendly.
- Barrier performance varies by grade; confirm OTR, WVTR, units, and test conditions for the final package.
- Customizable production: printing, transparency, and surface treatment.
- Non-toxic and safe, suitable for direct food contact.

Product Details
BOPE film starts with a polyethylene web that is biaxially stretched to improve stiffness, strength, gauge efficiency, and converting performance. It can be printed, coated, metallized, or laminated with compatible polyethylene sealant films to create mono-PE package structures. Recycling claims must be evaluated on the finished package rather than the BOPE layer alone. Key performance areas include:
