Coffee and tea packaging film refers to specialized flexible materials designed to maintain the freshness, aroma, and flavor of coffee and tea products. These films act as barriers against external elements such as moisture, air, and light, which can compromise the product's quality over time. They are widely used to facilitate efficient storage and transportation while offering visually appealing and user-friendly packaging solutions.
The primary materials used in coffee and tea packaging films include polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, aluminum foil, and others. Polyethylene is a polymer derived from the polymerization of ethylene monomers. These films are utilized in various packaging formats such as pouches, bags, wrappers, and more, and support multiple printing techniques, including flexographic, digital, gravure, offset, and screen printing. Applications span retail, bulk, e-commerce, and food service packaging, with end users including coffee roasters, tea producers, retail chains, and online grocery platforms.
