Aluminum foil provides complete protection against light, oxygen, moisture and bacteria. Therefore, it is widely used in food and pharmaceutical packaging. Aluminum foil is also very functional for aseptic packaging that allows perishable goods to be stored without refrigeration.
Aluminum foil is obtained by rolling aluminum plates cast from molten aluminum to the desired thickness. Pressure sensors on the plate are constantly monitored to maintain a constant thickness. Aluminum foil used for packaging purposes today is divided into three main groups: household and corporate foil, semi-rigid foil containers and flexible packaging. The use of foil is growing every year.
Aluminum foil is used in a wide range of applications including food preparation, insulation, electronics, geochemical sampling, and art and decoration. Increasingly, aluminum foil is combined with flexible films to create lightweight packaging.
The use of aluminum foil has reached an almost endless number in the last hundred years. From Christmas tree decorations to spacecraft insulation, from prepackaged ready meals to medicine packets, aluminum foil is in life.
In short, aluminum foil, whether unsupported or laminated to paper and films, has now become a mandatory material for flexible packaging in the food industry. Foil is also widely used in pouches, dairy covers, capsules, labels, seals and other applications.
