Lamination of Complex Films
The adhesive lamination process allows for the creation of multi-layer film structures that are used as flexible packaging in a wide variety of applications: food packaging, hygiene and sanitary products, and other domestic and industrial products.
This training course will cover the basic characteristics of the materials used in the production of flexible packaging films, the different multilayer film processing technologies, and the key parameters of the adhesive lamination process.
