BOPP Folia Description
What is BOPP Folia?
BOPP folia is a biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) film supplied in rolls (“folia” means film or foil in several European languages). It is known for its high clarity, gloss, tensile strength and moisture barrier, which makes it a workhorse film for packaging snacks, bakery products, dry food, labels and pressure-sensitive tapes.
Compared with non-oriented PP film, BOPP folia offers improved stiffness, better dimensional stability and higher line speeds on printing, lamination and slitting equipment.

CloudFilm offers a full BOPP folia portfolio so that you can cover printing, lamination, overwrap and tape applications with one supplier:
- BOPP Printing Film – High-gloss or matte printing-grade BOPP folia with controlled corona treatment and excellent ink adhesion, ideal as the outer layer of flexible packaging and labels.
- Metallized BOPP Film – BOPP folia coated with a thin metal layer to improve oxygen and light barrier, widely used for snacks, confectionery and pharmaceutical overwraps.
- BOPP Gloss Film & Matte Film – High-gloss film for strong shelf impact and matte film for premium, low-glare finishes, both suitable for lamination and overwrap. (Internal links to /product/bopp-glossy-film/ and /product/matte-pet-film/ if needed)
- BOPP Thermal Lamination Film – EVA-coated BOPP folia for one-step thermal lamination of books, magazines, gift boxes and food packaging. (Internal link to /product/bopp-thermal-lamination-film/)
- BOPP Pearlized Film – White, pearl-like BOPP folia with low density and excellent opacity for ice cream, confectionery and personal-care labels. (Internal link to /product/bopp-pearlized-film/)
- Anti Fog BOPP Film – Anti-fog BOPP folia for refrigerated fresh produce, salad and bakery packs where clear visibility is critical. (Internal link to /product/bopp-anti-fog-film/)
- BOPP Tape Film – Base film for carton-sealing and specialty tapes, supplied as jumbo rolls for coating and slitting. (Internal link to /product/bopp-tape-film/)
By combining these grades, you can build mono-material BOPP structures that are easier to recycle while still meeting barrier, appearance and process requirements.

BOPP Folia Applications
- Food Packaging – BOPP folia is widely used for pillow packs and flow-wrap packaging of biscuits, confectionery, nuts, bakery products and dry foods, often combined with metallized BOPP for higher barrier.
- Label & Lamination – Corona-treated BOPP folia serves as a durable face stock for pressure-sensitive labels and as a lamination layer for book covers, magazines and cartons.
- Pressure-Sensitive Tapes – As a tape base film, BOPP folia offers a good balance of stiffness and conformability, making it suitable for carton-sealing tapes, stationery tapes and specialty industrial tapes.
- Pharmaceutical Packaging – Clear BOPP folia is used for overwraps and labels on blister packs, cartons and medical devices where clean appearance and dimensional stability are required.
- Industrial Packaging – BOPP folia can be used as an outer wrap or lamination layer for heavy-duty sacks, bulk goods and hardware products, protecting the contents from dust, moisture and handling damage.
FAQ
A BOPP roll refers to the standard industrial format of BOPP film, which is wound onto a core for efficient handling and use on high-speed packaging and printing machinery. The roll’s dimensions (width, length and thickness) are customized to fit your specific production line requirements.
No. BOPP is a specific type of polypropylene (PP). The “biaxially oriented” stretching process aligns the molecules in both directions, giving BOPP film higher tensile strength, better clarity and improved barrier properties compared with non-oriented PP film.
Yes, BOPP film is recyclable as PP (recycling code #5). Its mono-material structure supports many companies’ sustainability goals. In practice, recyclability also depends on your local waste-collection and recycling system.
CloudFilm typically supplies BOPP folia in 15–50 μm for general packaging, labels and tapes. Other gauges can be discussed for special applications. We can help you choose the right thickness based on product weight, desired stiffness and packaging format.
Corona-treated BOPP folia from CloudFilm is suitable for flexo, gravure and UV printing. For high-quality graphics or demanding label applications, we recommend using our dedicated BOPP Printing Film grades.
Yes. Many of our clear and metallized BOPP folia grades are designed for direct or indirect food contact. CloudFilm can provide EU and FDA food-contact statements and test reports for your chosen grade and lot upon request.
For standard BOPP folia grades, the typical MOQ is around 1,000 kg per thickness or structure. For very special or customized structures, the MOQ may be higher. Please contact us with your target structure so that we can confirm the MOQ.
For most standard grades, the production lead time is usually 2–3 weeks after order confirmation, plus sea-freight time from Qingdao Port to your destination. For urgent projects, we will try to arrange earlier production slots where possible.
Yes. We can supply A4 sheets or short trial rolls (for example 200–500 m per type) so that you can evaluate BOPP folia on your own machines. Please tell us your application, thickness range and surface structure, and we will arrange suitable samples.
