Figure 1: Cereal packaging uses multi-layer laminated films for optimal preservation, preserving natural flavors and nutrients The role of laminated film in grain preservation
- Outer layer (PET, OPP): Heavy-duty, is the printing surface, increasing brand recognition. Takes on a basic moisture-proof role, preventing water and air from penetrating.
- Middle layer (AL, MPET, MCPP): Aluminum/metal plating helps block light, prevent oxidation, prevent air, moisture and microorganisms. This layer prolongs shelf life, preserves the grain's flavor, and prevents mold and odor loss.
- Innermost layer (PE, CPP): Direct contact with grain, increases flexibility, mechanical durability, ensures food safety, easy to seal, prevents clumping, infection, and dehydration.
