Everything about Multilayered packaging
Type of retail packaging
Multilayer packaging is a form of composite material that combines two or more distinct layers, each chosen for protective or functional properties. Typical materials include polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyamide (PA), ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH), aluminum foil, and paperboard. Multilayer formats are used in films, cartons, pouches, bottles, and tubes to extend shelf life, reduce spoilage, and provide mechanical strength. Wikipedia →
