38μm BOPET Film: The Practical Thin Grade for Printing and Lamination

86.9% Light Transmittance and 0.6% Haze in a 38μm Transparent Polyester Film

Product Overview

Some projects need the thinnest film possible. Others need a film that simply runs well, day after day. 38μm BOPET Film sits in that practical middle zone. It is thin enough to keep weight and cost down, yet carries enough body to feed cleanly through printing and lamination lines. With 86.9% light transmittance and 0.6% haze, it keeps graphics sharp and colors true, making it a reliable workhorse for graphic arts, labels, and membrane switch construction.
