BOPP - BIORENTED POLYPROPYLENE FILM
Bioriented polypropylene film with optimum performance. It has different properties in its appearance, so it can be metallized, pearlized, opaque, matte, transparent and white.
BOPP’s main characteristic is the barrier to the entry or exit of moisture as well as its ease of use in all printing systems. Also, it can be recycled with or without printing.
Its high transparency and gloss, wide range of thicknesses, good mechanical properties, excellent water vapor permeability, cavitated with different densities and versatility stand out.
We have a complete catalog of products that allows us to offer different solutions for a wide range of applications.

WRAP-AROUND
LABELS
LABELS
Bioriented Polypropylene Films for wrap-around labels, featuring excellent slip properties, ideal for high-speed machines. They offer outstanding mechanical performance, easy processing, a wide range of thicknesses, and, above all, excellent machinability.
SELF-ADHESIVE
LABELS
LABELS
Bioriented Polypropylene Films for self-adhesive labels, offering excellent mechanical properties, easy processing, a wide range of thicknesses, and, above all, outstanding machinability.
SCOTCH TAPE
Bioriented Polypropylene Films for adhesive tapes, featuring excellent mechanical properties. Designed for versatile use in box sealing and general packaging, they offer high resistance to weight and stress, easy processing, a wide range of thicknesses, and strong tensile and tear resistance.
OVERWRAPPING
Bioriented Polypropylene Films for overwrapping, offering high gloss and clarity, along with an effective barrier to water vapor.
They provide excellent seal strength, good dimensional stability, reliable slip properties, and are suitable for high-speed machines. These films also feature easy processing, a wide range of thicknesses, and, above all, outstanding machinability.
TOBACCO
Bioriented Polypropylene Films for tobacco label wrapping, offering high seal strength, easy processing, enhanced gloss, and excellent transparency, along with reliable sealing performance.
We meet current market demands, which include standard clear films and high-shrink films.
MOLD LABELS
Bioriented Polypropylene Films designed for in-mold labels (IML) in injection-molded PP containers. Suitable for offset, flexographic, and rotogravure printing systems. Also used in lamination with other substrates and inks.
Available in transparent, paper-like, and matte finishes, offering all the advantages of BOPP.

SIMIL PAPER
DESCRIPTION
Bioriented polypropylene films with a face similar to paper, used in self-adhesive labels and in the graphic industry or for in mold applications either injection or blown.
It can be used alone or in combination with other substrates.
They have a high barrier to ultraviolet light, outstanding dimensional stability and excellent mechanical properties.
TRANSPARENTS
DESCRIPTION
Transparent polypropylene films, used in all application segments produced by Vitopel Argentina.
These films can be either one side treated, both or neither.
Transparent BOPP Films might be used without combination with any other substrate for overwrapping applications; or they can be used with inks, adhesives and/or laminations with BOPP films or other types of substrates.
They can be heat-sealable on one side or on both sides, and on some occasions, they are non-sealable materials.
These types of films have a wide sealing range as well as very good sealing integrity. Other characteristics are good level of barrier against both.
MATT
DESCRIPTION
Bioriented Polypropylene Films with a matte surface, commonly used in the packaging industry, self-adhesive tapes, and other applications.
They may be treated on one or both sides and are suitable for printing, adhesive applications, and lamination with other substrates.
These films are generally heat-sealable on both sides (except for those without the letter "S" in their product code).
They feature a wide sealing range and offer excellent sealing integrity.
They may be treated on one or both sides and are suitable for printing, adhesive applications, and lamination with other substrates.
These films are generally heat-sealable on both sides (except for those without the letter "S" in their product code).
They feature a wide sealing range and offer excellent sealing integrity.
METALLIZED
DESCRIPTION
Bioriented polypropylene films metallized with high-purity aluminum, commonly used in the packaging industry, self-adhesive labels, envelopes, and other applications.
They may be treated on one or both sides and are suitable for printing, adhesive applications, and lamination with other substrates.
These films are generally heat-sealable on both sides (except for those without the letter "S" in their product code).
They offer a wide sealing range and excellent sealing integrity.
One of their key features is their outstanding barrier performance against gases and water vapor.
WHITES
DESCRIPTION
Solid white Bioriented Polypropylene Films, commonly used in the packaging industry.
They may be treated on one or both sides and are suitable for applications involving inks, adhesives, and lamination with other substrates.
These films are generally heat-sealable on both sides.
OPAQUE
DESCRIPTION
Cavitated Bioriented Polypropylene Films, suitable for use in the food industry to produce wrappers for ice cream, chocolates, bottle labels, among others.
They can also be used in non-food applications, such as self-adhesive labels, injection-molded and blown labels, among others. The main feature of this film is the presence of microcavities—very small voids—formed during the manufacturing process.
The purpose of cavitated BOPP is to maintain the required standards of opacity, mechanical strength, and printability for each packaging application, while reducing the grammage and overall weight of the film.
