Pearlized Film

Pearlized BOPP film — also called cavitated or white opaque BOPP film — is a low-density, high-opacity polypropylene film that combines a premium pearl finish with the stiffness and moisture protection your packaging needs. It is made by dispersing a pearlescent filler into polypropylene resin and biaxially orienting the film, which forms micro-voids that create the characteristic pearl sheen, bright white opacity, and reduced density of 0.65–0.78 g/cm³.

SAILLAGE's pearlized BOPP film for packaging is engineered for food-contact applications and high-speed converting. It is widely used for snack packaging, ice cream and confectionery wrappers, cold drink sleeves, beverage and wrap-around labels, premium soap and gift boxes, and as an outer ply in laminated structures. Compared with clear BOPP, it delivers more square meters per kilogram, a clean white base for brand graphics, and reliable machinability with controlled COF and thermal shrinkage.

We supply standard, heat-sealable and custom-thickness grades. Contact SAILLAGE for technical data, samples and a quotation.

0.65–0.78 g/cm³ Low Density High Opacity White Base Food-Grade FDA / EU Corona ≥38 dyne/cm Heat-Sealable Options
Density 0.65–0.78 g/cm³

Lower than clear BOPP (about 0.90 g/cm³), giving more square meters per kilogram and better yield economics.

Surface Treatment Corona ≥38 dyne/cm

Ready for gravure, flexo and lamination; specify your ink system if you need 40–42 dyne/cm.

Thickness 25–50 µm

Standard packaging grades with ±3–5% tolerance; custom thickness and width available.

Why Choose Pearlized BOPP Film

Where the value comes from — the film's cavitated structure, food-safe quality and documented consistency.

01

Low Density, Higher Yield

0.65–0.78 g/cm³ versus about 0.90 g/cm³ for clear BOPP means more square meters per kilogram and a lower unit cost.

02

High Opacity and Bright White Base

The cavitated structure blocks product visibility and gives printed graphics a clean, stable white background.

03

Food-Grade and Compliant

Food-contact-approved materials, with documentation to FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 and EU Regulation 10/2011.

04

Consistent Pearl Finish

Controlled filler dispersion and L*a*b* whiteness checks keep the pearl sheen uniform from batch to batch.

05

Reliable Machinability

COF of 0.20–0.40 and thermal shrinkage ≤4% MD / ≤2% TD keep high-speed lines running without jams or registration drift.

06

Print-Ready Surface

Print-facing corona treatment of ≥38 dyne/cm supports gravure, flexo and lamination adhesion.

07

Heat-Sealable Options

Low-seal grades with seal initiation around 110–130°C for ice cream, confectionery and flow-wrap formats.

08

Controlled Moisture Barrier

MVTR of 3–8 g/m²/24h at 30 µm protects snacks and frozen products; laminate with metallized BOPP/PET for higher barrier.

09

Traceable, Documented Quality

Every roll ships with a Certificate of Analysis and full lot traceability back to raw material.

BOPP Pearlized film Applications

For snack packaging—such as potato chips, crackers, or puffed foods—it delivers outstanding stiffness and strength, ensuring reliable protection and maintaining product freshness, while its unique pearlescent finish creates a premium, eye-catching appearance that elevates brand appeal on store shelves.

ice packaging

For cold drink packaging—such as plastic bags or sleeves for iced beverages, frozen juices, or popsicles—it maintains excellent flexibility even at low temperatures, avoiding brittleness, while its distinctive pearlescent luster enhances product visibility on store shelves.
