Metallic Heat Transfer Film is a specialized material used for adding decorative, shiny finishes to various products. It is commonly applied in labeling and packaging, such as the Metallic Film Label Foil, which enhances brand appeal with a premium metallic look. This film is ideal for Plastic Fruit Box Printing, providing durability and vibrant visuals that attract consumers.
The heat transfer process involves applying heat and pressure to transfer the metallic layer onto surfaces like plastic, paper, or fabric. It offers excellent adhesion, scratch resistance, and weatherproof properties, making it suitable for food packaging,cosmetics, and promotional items. The metallic effect can range from glossy gold and silver to holographic finishes, elevating product aesthetics while ensuring high-quality print results.

Production process
How to production heat transfer label/film? |
Cylinder Making (Gravure Engraving) |
A metal cylinder (typically copper-plated) is engraved with the desired pattern using laser or chemical etching. The cylinder is then chrome-plated for durability during high-speed printing. |
Printing (Gravure Printing) |
The engraved cylinder transfers ink onto a PET or OPP film substrate in layers (adhesive, metallic, color, and protective coatings). Each color is applied sequentially, requiring precise registration for multi-color designs. |
Drying |
Printed film passes through heated drying tunnels to evaporate solvents, ensuring ink adhesion and preventing smudging. Temperature control is critical to avoid film warping or ink cracking. |
Cutting/Slitting |
The dried film is cut into rolls or sheets of specified widths using precision slitting machines. Edge uniformity and tension control are maintained to prevent wrinkles. |
Quality Inspection |
Visual and machine checks for defects (scratches, misprints, color deviations). Adhesion tests (tape peeling) and rub resistance tests are conducted. |
Packing |
Approved rolls/sheets are wrapped in anti-static film and packed into moisture-proof boxes. Labels include batch numbers, color codes, and specifications for traceability. |
