2nd Step
The second step starts from material selection
Mylar packaging bags have the advantage to be smell proof, moisture barrier, sealable, printable, and flexible. It's perfect to preserve food quality. Mylar pouches are popular in food storage and packaging of marijuana dispensary products, gummy edibles, or supplements. The choice of adequate materials and their combination is crucial for bag's function.
What is mylar? To put it simple, mylar is in nature a type of plastic film that is thin and durable. It's about 12microns in thickness, usually with a thin layer of aluminum coating. Its technical name is METPET, MPET, or VMPET ( e.g. vapor metalized PET film) at the very beginning when it's invented. It has been around for nearly seventy years, since its invention in the 1950s by Dupont. Now DuPont Teijin Films have evolved to a wide variety of film options including clear, hazy and matte PET. Metallized mylar bags were then put into use as food packaging bags for MRE meal in the army. They have been proven to be practical and costeffective over the years. Mylar bags are not made by metallised PET solely, but by laminates of several other material, such as clear PET, VMPET, kraft paper, LLDPE, or PLA. This multi-layer laminated film is flexible and can be customized to build strong and stylish barrier mylar bags.
If you are new to this field, you may be faced with so many terminologies and confused with their meaning. Below is the basic knowledge you need know to make a better material choice. It can save you from making tough decisions in constructing an odor proof mylar bags. This package is perfect for packaging weed strains, cannabis edibles, pre rolls, e vape cartridges, flour, rice, yeast, pasta, beans, cbd products, and more.
Clear PET film (Polyester film)
Normally in thickness of 48 gauge, this clear mylar film is excellent in higher tensile strength& better moisture barrier than PP & PE film. It is easy to be metalized by aluminum, custom printed, laminated to make dispensary packaging bags or food storage mylar bags. This material is resistant to temperature change from freezer to oven.
After metallized by aluminum, PET film have a metallic shining effect in aesthetic appeal. METPET film greatly decrease the permeability of oxygen and water vapor moisture. Having the same odor resistant property, it can be used as a high barrier component in the laminated mylar film to enhance the protection for herb freshness or cannabis quality.
Matte PET film is a bi-axially oriented polyester film that has a silk-like medium haze in the light and a less glossy appearance than traditional clear PET. It is ideal for custom printing. When used for window bag, the window is frost and foggy.
Soft Touch PET film is a type of polyester film that has been specially coated to give it a matte, soft feel. This film has a minor gloss when compared to Matte PET film, but feels more gentle to the touch. In addition, Soft Touch PET film is abrasion-resistant, printable, and durable, making it an excellent choice for packaging cannabis products, snacks, or other products where a premium feel is desired. With its soft texture and ability to upscale packaging, Soft Touch PET film is a great way to elevate your brand and impress your customers.
LLDPE ( Linear Low-Density Polyethylene)
Acting as sealable layer, LLDPE is more than a functional film. It is flexible, and can work with Clear PET to create heat seal mylar bags.
Contrary to plastic film, kraft paper is 100% recyclable. Kraft mylar bags are lined with MPET and LLDPE. The paper/VMPET/LLDPE laminated film is sealable by a heat sealer. It retains the same protection ability while helping improve your brand identity with the natural look and hand feel.
Eco PLA and recyclable PE are biodegradable. They can be used in circumstances when the custom package needn't meet a high level oxygen or moisture barrier requirements. PLA comes from renewable starch or sugar, it's compostable when being disposed of in a proper way. Bags made by recyclable PE can be recycled and reused. So it can reduce waste and pollution, and it's eco-friendly for non-food items packaging such as clothing and accessories, books, toys, etc.
We have still more to choose from such as BOPP, VMOPP, CPP, PA, aluminum foil, etc.
Having selected the desired material components for mylar laminates, it comes to choosing their combination and thickness to make a best custom mylar bag for storing weed, water, gun, or food items.
