Product Description

Structure: 3-Layers

Printable layer Sealable layer

TSPE is transparent biaxially oriented PE film. It is one side corona treated for
printing and other side with broad heat seal range and very high seal strength
surface; especially designed with excellent clarity, gloss and controlled thickness
for demanding high speed packaging applications.
