PET/PE film guide
Review technical fit, application risk, MOQ, and sample details before confirming a structure.
Buyer resource hub
Packaging Material Guides
Material selection notes for PET/PE film, BOPP film, aluminum foil, barrier structures, pouches, and roll stock film.
Start with the buying question
Packaging decisions usually begin with a practical constraint: shelf life, filling equipment, print finish, MOQ, or a target market document. This hub groups the pages buyers use when they need to narrow material choices before requesting a sample or quotation.
Use the product pages for commercial specification, the material pages for film and laminate structure, and the factory pages for production and inspection review. When details are ready, send product type, size, material, quantity, printing, country, and an artwork file through the request form.

Buyer questions
How should I use these resources?
Start from the product application, then compare material structure, barrier level, printing route, MOQ, and documents before requesting a sample.
Can XIYONG PACK help choose a material?
Yes. Send product type, fill weight, shelf-life target, filling method, and destination market so the team can review suitable structures.
Are material documents available?
Available specification sheets, COA, SGS, RoHS, REACH, MSDS, or food-contact files can be requested by project.
Can I compare recyclable and foil structures?
Yes. Recyclable structures can be reviewed against shelf life and sealing needs; foil structures are normally selected when stronger barrier is required.
Where should I send artwork?
Use the request form and upload a PDF, image, ZIP, or artwork file when available.
Send size, material and quantity for factory review
Attach artwork or a reference drawing if available. The team will check MOQ, sample route, lead time, and quotation logic against your target packaging structure.
Sample and Quotation Request
Send your specification, quantity, destination, and required documents. The team will review MOQ, lead time, sample availability, and quotation details.
Use these guides to make a shortlist
Start with the material family and the production constraint that matters most: barrier, print finish, sealing, machine fit, document scope or delivered cost. Then use the linked pages to prepare a sample or quotation request with measurable details.
Comparison Notes
| Option | Best fit | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Packaging Material Guides | Used when the product risk, format, and buyer specification match the material structure. | Thickness or GSM, width, core diameter, coating, barrier target, print route, and document scope. |
| Alternative film or paper structure | Useful when cost, seal window, stiffness, recyclability, or barrier target changes. | OTR, MVTR, heat seal temperature, tensile strength, haze, gloss, adhesive, or basis weight as relevant. |
| Custom printed or converted format | Needed when artwork, barcode, zipper, valve, spout, label face stock, or sheet format affects production. | Artwork file, color reference, winding direction, MOQ, sample route, carton packing, and lead-time basis. |
Specification Checklist
- Define the product risk and use case for Packaging Material Guides.
- Confirm thickness, GSM, roll width, core diameter, coating, treatment, or adhesive details.
- Check OTR, MVTR, heat seal temperature, tensile strength, haze, gloss, or thermal sensitivity when relevant.
- Prepare artwork, barcode, color reference, winding direction, and packing-line notes.
- Confirm sample route, MOQ, lead-time basis, carton packing, shipping mark, and destination market.
- List required datasheet, COA, SGS, RoHS, REACH, MSDS, or food-contact documents.
Buyer FAQ
What should buyers confirm before requesting Packaging Material Guides pricing?
Confirm product type, size, material target, quantity, printing requirement, destination country, artwork status, packing format, and required documents.
How should Packaging Material Guides be compared with alternatives?
Compare product risk, barrier target, sealing condition, print quality, roll specification, document availability, MOQ, and sample approval path.
Which factory checks are useful before bulk production?
