Bicell® can be produced in various ways: only the core or a core with a top and/or bottom layer. The possibility to laminate one or both sides, enlarges the number of finishes of Bicell® and therefore the number of application possibilities. These possibilities transcend the traditional packaging solutions. Structural elements in the construction, furniture or automotive sector are now part of the possibilities. Bicell® has a number of unique characteristics that answer to your specific demand.

Other Applications:
- Packaging: with Bicell® you can manufacture strong packaging in countless shapes.
- Sleeves: With its high rigidity, Bicell® offers a firm base for sleeves and coverings for wire containers.
- Promotional items / displays: Different colors or a personalized pre-printed film give various promotional items an extra dimension which makes it more attractive. The combination of different colors on top or bottom gives a special appearance to displays, exhibition stands, ...
- Shockproof / protective: A foam layer laminated onto the Bicell® sheet, prevents damage to your products.
- Automotive: Finishes for cargo spaces of delivery vans are perfectly possible with Bicell®.
- Textile: the use of several non-woven textiles or spun bond fabrics gives Bicell® a high-quality finish.
- Nutrition: Bicell® is ideal for food packaging. The lamination of a personalized film gives your product a better visibility.
- Protective packaging: the use of an insulating film or a soft textile layer make sure your goods are transported and delivered in perfect condition.
- Possible Treatments
- Flame retardant
- UV stabilizer
- Antistatic
- Gamma ray stabilizer
- Corona treatment
- Processing
- Cutting (guillotine, manual, plotter)
- Die cutting
- Welding (thermal, ultrasonically, hot air)
- Bonding
- Sterilizing
- Recycling
- Cleaning
- Laminating
Bicell® can be laminated with several different finishing layers. These finishing layers create an extra dimension for Bicell®. This enlarges the number of applications and gives Bicell® some new characteristics such as:
- Conductive / ESD: this causes the Bicell® sheet to become electrically conductive. This creates the perfect packaging solution for products that are sensitive to electric discharge.
- Shockproof / protective: A foam layer laminated onto the Bicell® sheet, prevents damage to your products.
- Anti-slip: prevents people or goods to slip away on a Bicell® sheet and therefore prevents injuries and damage.
- Personalized prints: with a pre-printed film you can personalize your application in detail: an attractive packaging. An imitation of wood, textile or other materials are possible.
- Textile: the use of several non-woven textiles or spun bond fabrics give Bicell® a high-quality finish, thus avoiding scratches.
- Insulating: aluminum colored films give packaged goods the capability of maintaining its temperature, either cold or hot.
- VCI: specifically developed additives prevent the oxidation of metal parts.
- Luxury: laminating a silver or gold foil onto the sheet, gives your packaging a luxury appearance.
- Other laminates are on request: tell us your specific need and we will look for a suitable solution.
