Barrier films are typically laminated with metalized film to prevent oxygen or moisture from reaching a packaged product. A typical barrier film would be constructed using 3 or 4 different materials laminated together. A Paper/Poly/Foil/Poly is commonly used for products requiring a moisture and oxygen barrier. Foil films, typically metalized polyester, are also used in conjunction with odiferous products and sterile products like bandages, wipes and medical disposables.
