Storage & Handling

Storage Conditions

All products are stored in dry, protected and clean environments, and are shipped under the same conditions in any mean of transportation. It is recommended that storage and transportation are carried out at a temperature of around 30°C and relative humidity of 60%.

If the temperature is not at the recommended level, the following problems might occur -

• Surface treatment level reduction which, at a later stage, might hinder printing and/or lamination
• Film transparency reduction
• Excessive CoF reduction, which might hinder processing and machinability
• It is recommended that BOPP films are kept at operating room temperature for 24 hours before use.
