MDO PE Film
We are a Chinese supplier of MDO PE film. Production utilizes specialized MDO machinery. We offer diverse options for film specifications and printing. Customized solutions, including Metallized Film, EVOH, and barrier layers, are available. OEM/ODM customization is supported.
MDO PE technology, or Machine Direction Orientation polyethylene film. Production process: Following polyethene extrusion via blown moulding, the material undergoes unidirectional stretching. Typically manufactured from high-density PE. Used in many packaging types, like crisp bags, stand-up pouches, and cat food packs. It’s very hygroscopic and offers strong barrier resistance. Frequently employed in nappies and sanitary towels. Features antimicrobial properties, suitable for hospital and agricultural protective clothing. Recyclable.
Featuers:
- High barrier properties: OTR up to 0.1 cm³/(m²·d)
- Excellent printability: Compatible with all printing methods
- Material: 100% PE or PE laminated with 4% EVOH
- Customisation options: Gloss / Matt / Metallic coating / EVOH / Barrier layer
Product Details of MDO PE Film
We manufacture and supply MDO PE film. This serves as an alternative to conventional plastics such as PET, OPP, and OPA. It effectively addresses recycling challenges and represents a form of monomaterial packaging. Typically made from polyethylene, its production differs from standard PE film making. After blown molding, the film undergoes unidirectional stretching. This operation significantly enhances the film’s properties, delivering superior strength and puncture resistance. Barrier performance is improved, offering enhanced moisture resistance and oxidation protection. Its oxygen transmission rate (OTR) can reach as low as 0.1 cm³/(m²·d).
MDO PE with added EVOH enhances oxygen barrier properties, reducing barrier layer thickness and costs. It can also undergo metallization treatment. This enhances glossiness and aesthetic appeal in confectionery packaging. MDO PE prints great. It works well with all printing methods, like flexography, letterpress, and digital printing. We print custom designs to enhance brand image and impact.
MDO PE is the preferred choice for single-material packaging. Its versatile functionality covers many areas. This includes food packaging, medical protection, industrial production, agricultural use, and personal care. Typical uses encompass confectionery packaging, stand-up pouches, pet food packaging, and protective clothing. We deliver products tailored to market requirements. Quality is certified to international ISO 9001 standards. Professional customized solutions are provided.
