There was a time when people could not package perishable items for a long time. Bottles might break and paper boxes were fine for packaging dry solids but did not guarantee high barrier against moisture or odor or even heat. Then came technology that brought with it aluminum foils and aluminum SRC foils or Semi rigid container foils and other novel variants that revolutionized packaging. With the polythene bags taking up newer healthier forms, bottles came to be replaced and paper boxes were replaced conveniently by Aluminium SRC foils.
How Aluminium SRC foils are used?
Today, we do not have to introduce Aluminium SRC foils to anyone and we can just say that these foils are so famous worldwide that they can be found in various thickness, shapes and even sizes. These are customized so that the companies can use them for their products and ensure a longer shelf life than the paper boxes.
These semi rigid container foils come in plain, laminated or lacquered forms. They are made with fitted lids so that you can rest assured that the contents remain inside for a long time without any exposure to outside environment.
The rough patterned portion is mostly used as the outer part and the interior of the SRC Containers are used for storing in the foods or other products. A whole wide range of products like powders, fast foods or take away foods or even chocolates and baked confectionery can also be stored in these boxes.
Specifications of Aluminium SRC Container foils:
Normally, these container foils are made as per the sizes that are requested by the client companies. Fast food joints normally get boxes of thickness ranging between 0.040 and 0.210 mm. However, boxes are also made for household purposes and their heat retaining properties have found a huge fan following from the families.
Food remains fresh as bacterial and viral contamination is next to nil and the heat of the food remains inside the box as aluminum by nature, has good insulation properties.
Though aluminium is a metal, many may feel that its weight might be a problem, but it is as light as paper and range between 109 and 570gsm.
There are more uses and applications of container foils that are still being researched and it will not be long before there are newer and more features that are added to these already useful foil containers.
