Lidding films are a type of flexible packaging film, available in both easy-peel and lock-tight versions. Generally speaking, they are most commonly made from paper, foils, polyethylene, polyester, and other types of flexible packaging materials. With easy-peel, as the name would suggest, the consumer can peel the film from the container with relative ease. While lock-tight films seal so tightly; you need a tool (such as scissors or a knife) to gain access to the product. Lidding films are most commonly used to seal plastic containers, paperboard pints, or trays for food items such as dairy products like sour cream and cottage cheese. Other products packaged in lidding films may also include canned soups, meats, microwave dinners, and other foods packaged in rigid containers.
Features of Lidding Film
Temperature Resistant
Our cover films are made from reusable carbon fiber/coated materials including CPET, PP, OPS, PS, APET coated, HIPS, HDPE. They can operate at lower temperatures and are suitable for hot and cold refrigeration and freezer applications.
Good Compatibility
These lidding films are compatible with different tray sealing equipment and can be placed manually on top of the tray or automatically with the tray placed underneath the film. Once in place, the film is sealed and then straight or die-cut around the tray.
Rich Patterns
Our cover film allows a variety of printing options, colors and designs. You can provide us with specified patterns, logos and text, and we will display them on the cover film to provide bright packaging effects for food.
Easy to Use
These lidding films provide a sealant layer with high thermal tack for extra-strong sealing. They also offer anti-fog, laser-perforated, peelable and reclosable features to fit a variety of pallet types.
Application of Lidding Film
The lidding film exhibits the brand story, nutritional information, tempting details and captivating branding. In the realm of the food and beverage industry, lidding films offer supreme quality, extending the shelf life of culinary art and tempting customers to buy the product.
Ready-to-Eats Meal
Lidding films are widely used for sealing pre-packaged meals and food-carrying trays. They preserve the freshness and crispness of food items such as meats, vegetables and sauces – while ensuring portion control.
Fresh Produce
Lidding films are applied to the fresh fruits and vegetables container, which creates a protective barrier, reducing spoilage and dehydration. This helps maintain the produce’s look, crunch and quality, keeping the fresh produce appealing to consumers.
Dairy & Deli Goods
Lidding films are used for sealing trays and containers of dairy items such as cottage cheese, yogurt and sour cream. They prevent contamination and maintain the content’s taste and texture. While for deli goods, they are used for preserving and protecting meat and cheese trays against any contaminants.
Bakery Items
Lidding films work great in sealing your containers for baked goods, cakes and pastries etc. They protect these susceptible delicacies from moisture, oxygen and whatnot, preserving their freshness.
Benefits of Lidding Film
Three of these attributes are especially important. When it comes to lidding, you want your package to be peelable, temperature resistant, and anti-fog. Here’s why:
Anti-fog
Consumers want to be able to see what they’re about to eat. Food manufacturers do not want the transparent parts of the lidding film to become foggy when the contents are moist (i.e. when they are being microwaved). Packaging is important to selling a food product and keeping that product safe for consumption. When selecting a type of packaging for your product, keep lidding film in mind for all of its beneficial attributes.
Temperature Resistant
These packages often hold foods like frozen, pre-cooked meals. These products must be kept frozen before consumption because cold temperatures keep harmful bacteria from growing and multiplying. To keep the food safe, refrigerators should be set no higher than 40 degrees Fahrenheit and freezers set at zero degrees Fahrenheit. In order to make the meals edible, most consumers heat the food up in the microwave. Therefore, the packaging needs to stay secure in a wide range of temperatures.
Peelable
Food manufacturers want to offer their customers convenience; essentially, they want their products to be easy to use. Packaging companies know how to create lidding film with just the right peel strength to make the product easy to open while still keeping the product secure and protected in a durable package.
Quality Preservation
From being safe for consumers, film foil lidding is safe for your product too. The multi-layered structure is meant to eliminate puncturing, moisture and oxygen barrier protection. This helps keep your product fresher for long.
Consumer Safety
In addition, film foil laminations are generally safer and hardly prone to shredding, which may cause cuts and scrapes upon opening. Making it an excellent option for kid-friendly food products.
Brand Integration
When it involves printing and labeling, film foil lidding provides a superb canvas for branding, design and even nutritional information. There are many custom lamination options available to showcase your brand uniquely.

Cold and Hot Lidding Films
Cold lidding films are specially designed to function well in applications with very cold temperatures such as refrigerated and frozen foods, cut fruit, vegetables and other produce. Cold lidding films adhere to PET, PS, HIPS PLA coated trays.

Hot lidding films adhere to CPET, PP, OPS, PS, APET coatings, HIPS, HDPE trays.
Tamper Evident Lidding Films
Lidding films with tamper evidence capabilities help food manufacturers and grocery stores protect their products from tampering. Often made of a thicker material tamper-evident lidding film has a unique design that helps to identify if the trayed package has been opened. Most tamper evident lidding film features a perforated line that runs along the seal of the film. If the lidding film has been tampered with, this line will be broken.
Factors to Consider When Choose Lidding Film
The material composition of the lidding film is a basic factor you must consider. Myriad film types are available, including Polyethylene, Polypropylene, Polyethylene Terephthalate and other elements. Since each material has its unique features, characteristics and suitability for different applications. PE films are widely used for sealing trays while PP films provide clarity and heat resistance. PET films offer amazing barrier properties and are perfect for exhibiting items. Understand the properties and composition of materials when choosing the lidding film for your products.
Barrier protection elements refer to their ability to work against external aspects such as oxygen, light, moisture and other elements from entering the tray/package. Different foods demand different barrier properties. For example, perishable foods such as fresh produce call for high-barrier films to reduce oxidation and moisture absorption. At the same time, items like snacks or chips benefit from films that perfectly balance visibility and barrier protection. Assessing the barrier properties of lidding film is integral to a product’s shelf life; freshness and quality are maintained via its distribution and storage.
An effective seal plays a key role in protecting the product and maintaining its integrity. The seal integrity and lidding films determine their ability to survive multiple handling, storage and shipping conditions. Poor seal quality will lead to leaks, compromising the product’s safety. Different sealants, such as heat sealing or ultrasonic sealing, are widely used as per the material and packaging machinery. Understand the needs of your product and work closely with our team to get the right lidding film that offers amazing sealant.
Compatibility between lidding film and the packaging technique is an integral factor. Different packaging types require certain film features and characteristics that help ensure smooth and efficient operations. Factors including stiffness, film thickness and roll dimensions must be considered to prevent problems like misalignment during the packaging journey. Consult with our team to share the necessary information about the type of lidding film you wish to have for compatible solutions.
When choosing lidding film for food product packaging, you must ensure regulatory compliance. Food packaging materials must meet safety standards set by the Food & Drug Administration or other regulatory bodies in your area. Compliance with regulations ensures that the lidding film isn’t a health risk or harmful element to food items. Look for films that are certified for food contact and have been tested for safety.
