Innovia Films, a material science pioneer and global producer of BOPP films, has announced the launch of the new Rayoart™ GWP82 Matt HOP which is an 82 micron thick / 3.2 mill high opacity BOPP film, with a newly developed matt print coating for improved scratch and chemical resistance.

“This new film has been designed for maximum visual impact. The matt finish gives a premium, glare-free look whilst giving excellent dimensional stability for easy conversion and better UV and latex printing” says Bron Hekkema, Business Unit Director Graphics.

“The enhanced adhesion anchorage ensures high-performance application on various surfaces and the optimised adhesive receptive layer provides a strong, durable bonding with improved pigmented adhesive compatibility” explains Pieter du Plessis, Market Development Manager Graphics.

This application has been optimised for reduced material use and less environmental impact at end-of-life, with a reliable performance offering10-year indoor and 4-year outdoor durability when laminated.

This new base film is plasticizer and chloride free and aligns with the growing need for PVC-free, lower impact materials across the graphics sector.
