BOPP Thermal Lamination Film Description

BOPP thermal lamination film is widely used in the packaging and printing industries. It is made by applying EVA coating on one side of biaxially oriented polypropylene film (BOPP).

This thermal adhesive can be heated to create an excellent laminate with paper or other films, thus forming a tough protective layer. BOPP thermal laminating film features superior transparency and glossiness, substantially elevating printed media’s print quality.

Its waterproof and greaseproof properties make it widely used in the packaging sector. At the same time, its light yet authoritarian nature is essential to preserve the integrity of materials like books, magazines, and packaging boxes.

This thermal lamination film is used to waterproof books and magazines in the publication industry. This serves to make the copies more durable and appealing.

Our standard offerings include BOPP base films with a thickness of 10 μm and 12 μm, complemented by an EVA layer that can range from 3.5 μm to 20 μm in thickness.

Our thermal lamination roll and BOPP thermal film products are highly sought after for their versatility and performance.

CloudFilm is a globally recognized company in BOPP thermal lamination film. Our products are highly regarded for being of high quality and reliable. We promise you top-notch quality of our product and service, and we are sure we will dazzle you together.

In addition to EVA-coated BOPP pre-coated film, we are also delighted to recommend our BOPP Adhesive-Free Lamination Film to you. The non-adhesive laminating film is our core technology and a unique product in the industry. It is a one-film solution that integrates a functional lamination layer, enabling direct lamination with other materials without the need for pre-coating or on-site coating processes.

BOPP Thermal Lamination Film Application

Publishing and education – book covers, textbooks, notebooks and magazines that need a durable, scuff-resistant, high-gloss or matte finish.
Commercial printing – brochures, catalogues, flyers, postcards and business cards where lamination improves colour density and perceived quality.
Food and FMCG packaging– folding cartons, sleeves and flexible packaging for snacks, bakery, confectionery and instant foods that require extra moisture and grease protection.
Labels and tags – product labels, hang tags and stickers that need better stiffness, gloss and resistance to handling and moisture.
Document and ID protection – certificates, ID cards, licences and frequently handled documents that must be protected against dirt, fingerprints and tearing.
POS and displays – posters, menus, point-of-sale materials and exhibition graphics that benefit from higher brightness and a wipe-clean surface.

How to Choose BOPP Thermal Lamination Film – Comparison & Ordering Checklist

Key selection points

Substrate type– coated art paper, uncoated paperboard, digital prints or flexible films may require different EVA coat weights and adhesion levels.
Printing process – offset, gravure, flexo or digital (toner/inkjet). Digital prints with heavy ink coverage may need specialised digital-grade thermal film.
Finish and appearance – high-gloss for vivid colours and strong shelf impact, matte for a premium, low-glare “paper-like” look. Soft-touch or anti-scratch films are also available on request.
Lamination conditions – typical EVA-coated BOPP thermal films run at 90–120 °C depending on film grade, line speed and substrate. Optimal settings should be confirmed on your laminator. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}
End-use requirements– food contact, deep creasing, die-cutting, hot stamping, spot UV, etc., may require specific formulations.

Information to include in your enquiry

To help us recommend the right BOPP thermal lamination film quickly, please share:

Application – e.g. book cover, brochure, folding carton, label, menu, poster.
Substrate details – paper type and grammage or film type and thickness.
Required finish – gloss / matte / soft touch / anti-scratch.
Target thickness – standard range 12–25 μm; please specify if you need single- or double-sided lamination.
Roll dimensions – width (mm), requested roll OD or length (m), 3″ or 6″ core.
Laminating machine – type, typical speed and temperature range you currently use.

What is BOPP thermal lamination film?

BOPP thermal lamination film is a biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) film with a heat-activated EVA coating on one side. When passed through a thermal laminator, the EVA layer melts and bonds to printed paper or film, forming a clear, protective layer that improves gloss, durability and moisture resistance.

What thicknesses and finishes can CloudFilm supply?

Our standard BOPP thermal lamination films are available in:

* Thicknesses: typically 12–25 μm total thickness, combining a BOPP base film with an EVA adhesive layer.
* Finishes: high-gloss and matte; soft-touch or anti-scratch finishes are available on request.
* Roll widths: 300–2000 mm, with 3″ or 6″ paper cores to fit different machines.

What lamination temperature and pressure do you recommend?

For EVA-coated BOPP thermal films, laminators commonly run with:

* Nip temperature: about 90–120 °C, depending on film grade, substrate, ink coverage and line speed.
* Nip pressure: sufficient to ensure full contact across the web without crushing the paper.
* Speed: adjusted so that the film has enough dwell time to activate the EVA and achieve good bonding.

Is BOPP thermal lamination film food-contact safe?

Yes, food-contact grades are available. CloudFilm can supply BOPP thermal lamination films that meet FDA/CE requirements when used as intended. Relevant food-contact declarations and supporting documents can be provided upon request together with the TDS and COA.

Is it suitable for digital printing?

Standard BOPP thermal films work well with many offset and gravure prints. For HP Indigo or toner-based digital prints with heavy ink coverage, we recommend digital-grade thermal films with optimised adhesion. Please share your printing method, ink type and any known lamination issues so that we can propose a suitable grade.

Can the laminated surface be further processed (die-cutting, creasing, hot stamping, spot UV)?*

Yes, properly laminated BOPP thermal films support common post-press operations such as die-cutting, creasing, hot foil stamping and spot UV. To avoid cracking or delamination, ensure correct lamination parameters, allow adequate curing time and test new combinations of ink, varnish and stamping foils before full-scale production.

What information should I provide to get a fast quotation?

Please include: application, substrate (paper/film and grammage or thickness), required finish, target thickness, roll width and length, core size (3″/6″), expected order quantity and destination port. Our team will respond with a recommended grade, technical data and pricing.

What is thermal lamination in simple terms?

Thermal lamination is a process that uses heat and pressure to apply a clear plastic film onto printed materials. The adhesive on the film melts in the laminator and bonds to the paper, giving the final product a more durable, water-resistant and visually appealing finish.
