Skin Packaging Films

Skin packaging films provide outstanding product presentation and brand recognition for retail items. A skin package consists of two components: a clear skin packaging film (often Surlyn based) and a coated skin packaging board or cardboard backing. The board is typically coated with a heat-seal dispersion coating and can be printed in up to 10 vibrant process colors.

Skin packaging is used in two ways: visual carded display and industrial skin packaging. Skin packaging provides outstanding product presentation and brand recognition for retail items. A skin package consists of two components: a clear skin packaging film (often Surlyn based) and a coated skin packaging board or cardboard backing.

Industrial skin packaging is commonly used to protect products in transit. Products as divergent as hardware, fresh meat and poultry, service repair kits, and cosmetics may be skin packaged instead of using die-cut corrugated, foam-in-place, foam peanuts, and other stabilizing or dunnage materials.

Skin packaging offers high throughputs, and full visibility to check for tampering or missing components. Skin packaging allows for  quick identification usually at no significant cost reductions.
