Laminated packaging
Decades of expertise with laminated films and our premium selection of European suppliers delivers quality products and incredible freedom of choice. With more than 200 concepts we can always find packaging films that suit your product, whether you need barrier films or a foil laminate without a strong barrier.
Laminated films
Our flexible packaging films and laminated packaging covers a wide range of industries: from food & beverages to technical applications, from agriculture to healthcare, and from pet food to beyond. Our laminated films are delivered as ‘films on reel’. Also known as a ‘Foil Laminate’. After delivery they are shaped on the customer’s machines. This does require a ‘Form Fill Seal’ machine, but brings many benefits:
- Packaging film on reel is generally substantially cheaper than pre-made packaging,
- The customer isn’t dependent on the supplier when it comes to the type of packaging shape they want to use,
- Filling with packaging films fed from reels is generally a faster production method, compared to filling preformed packaging.
Our laminated films can be used by both horizontal and vertical Form Fill Seal machines. And with flexo and rotogravure prints we offer multi-colour solutions that can tackle even the most challenging of designs. While we can’t highlight all of our 200+ concepts, down below you’ll find a few of the laminated films that we can offer.

Laminated Packaging Portfolio
Foil laminate (2-layers)
Our laminated films on reels have many benefits compared to monofilm: a more premium look and feel, the ability to ‘lock up’ your print between the packaging layers and the added possibilities for customization and optimization.
For example; when a monofilm doesn’t offer enough protection we can laminate a metallized film against it to improve protection without losing your print. Or when your packaging isn’t sealing well at the required temperatures, we can laminate a second film that seals at low temperatures to improve the seal without changing the temperature.
- Great runability,
- High bond strength,
- Can be microwavable or ovenable,
- Immensely customizable: choose from over 50+ duo-laminate concepts.
Whether you’re looking for a laminate that’s recyclable, has a short leadtime or is optimized for sealability: we’ve got a concept that matches it. And if we don’t? Then we’ll tailor a new concept to your demands!
At LPF we have more than 50 different concepts to choose from,
and that’s just within our 2-layered Foil Laminate(s)!
In case you’d like to know more about a specific concept and it’s recommended use,
we’re only one question away.
For now we’ll highlight just a few of our 2-layer laminated packaging:
| PET/ PE-seal | Optimized for sealing |
| KRAFT/PE | Paper-feel laminate that runs great |
| BOPP/MBOPP | Slight barrier |
| PET/PE-EVOH-PE | High barrier |
| BOPP/BOPP | Recycle-ready |
| PE/PE-seal | Recycle-ready and optimized for sealing |
| BOPP/PP-EVOH-PP | Recycle-ready, high-barrier |
- Flexoprint full HD:
- Up to 10 colours, or 9 colours with a lacquer/finish,
- Max printing width of 1450 mm.
- Rotogravure:
- Up to 9 colour external print, or 7 colours external +2 color internal,
- Max printing width of 1220 mm.
- Unique Coding System:
- Enhances your packaging with a unique code per individual cut-off,
- Allowing unique marketing campaigns and win-actions.
Barrier films (3 layers)
While the 2-layered laminated films mentioned above are a great step-up from monofilms when it comes to look, feel and customizability, they are often limited when it comes to barrier properties. When you want a high-barrier laminate that doesn’t make any sacrifices on runability and look & feel, or if perhaps your laminates need a specific characteristic: LPF 3-layer laminates are the perfect choice.
- Great runability,
- Microwaveable or ovenable,
- Pasteurizable or sterilizable (retort packaging),
- Generally used for high or very-high barrier concepts,
- Use of three layers gives even more room for customization or unique characteristics.
For products that require a stronger barrier,
we have plenty of 3-layer Barrier Films.
In case you’d like to know more about a specific concept and it’s recommended use,
we’re only one question away.
Some examples of the 3-layer laminated films we currently produce:
| PET-barrier/BOPA/CPP | Medium barrier with easy-peel |
| PET/MPET/PE | Metallized, medium barrier and great sealing |
| Kraft/ALU/PE | Paper feel, high barrier and great sealing |
| BOPP/ALU/CPP | High barrier with easy-peel |
| BOPP/ALU/PE | High barrier with great sealing |
| PET/ALU/PE | High barrier with great sealing |
