PET/PE
PET/PE Laminated Films for Food Packaging
Overview
PET Forming Performance with a PE Sealing Layer
AVI Global Plast supplies PET/PE laminated films for food packaging requiring clarity, stiffness and heat-sealing properties. The structure combines a PET base with a PE sealing layer for thermoforming and form-fill-seal applications, including suitable meat, dairy, dates and confectionery packaging.
Manufactured with AVI's integrated extrusion and lamination capabilities, PET/PE is available with easy-peel or lock-seal options. Select the specification around your product's barrier requirements, packaging equipment and intended storage conditions.
Structure
PET/PE — two-layer structure
- PETOuter layer — clarity, stiffness and printability
- PEInner heat-seal layer — easy-peel or lock-seal, per order
Illustrative structure, not to scale. Per-layer thickness split is confirmed with AVI's team against the order's gauge requirement.
Material Fit
Is PET/PE right for your process?
Meat Packaging
For applications where the selected laminate meets the product's protection and sealing requirements. Discuss product geometry, storage temperature and the intended shelf life.
Dairy Packaging
For formed packs requiring a suitable combination of presentation, forming and sealing properties. Specify the food type, filling conditions and lidding material.
Dates, Dry Fruits & Confectionery
For packaging where moisture protection, visibility and seal performance matter. Discuss the product's sensitivity and distribution conditions.
Modified Atmosphere Packaging
For applications where PET/PE provides the required pack performance. Confirm suitability against the product, gas mixture, lidding material and shelf-life target.
Thermoforming & Form-Fill-Seal
For production requiring a formable base and compatible sealing surface. Discuss draw depth, tooling and operating conditions.

Provides clarity, stiffness and a surface suited to appropriate printing or conversion processes.
PE Sealing Layer
Provides the heat-sealing surface, with easy-peel or lock-seal options selected alongside the intended lidding material.
Forming & Lamination Performance
Thermoformability and interlayer bond strength support conversion into the required pack geometry.
Base Material & Branding Options
Discuss anti-fog PET, recycled PET bases and pre-printed film options for your application.
