HOSTAPHAN® films for lamination are biaxially oriented films made of polyethylene terephthalat (PET), for example with a high gloss, which are especially developed for the lamination on various substrates.
Typical applications are metal packages like cans and canisters for food and chemical technical products. Another application is a decorative surface in the furniture industry.
In both, steel lamination and plywood / pressboard lamination, the printing is protected by the film when reverse printed film is applied.
HOSTAPHAN® lamination films are a high quality substitute for PVC film in many applications.
The following picture illustrates a possible laminate, where a printed film is applied to a substrate by using an adhesive.

Possible HOSTAPHAN® types for the application of lamination are transparent, matte, white and heat sealable films.
