Thermal Textured Gloss Fine Linen

Thermal Textured Gloss Fine Linen

Thermal Textured Gloss Fine Linen Lamination Film is a premium BOPP finishing film designed to combine the elegant appearance and tactile character of woven linen with a bright, glossy surface.

The fine linen-inspired texture introduces visible and tactile detail across the laminated surface, while the gloss finish enhances the appearance of the printed design beneath.

Manufactured from biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP), the film features a linen-effect surface on one side and a heat-activated adhesive coating on the reverse for efficient thermal lamination.

Thermal Textured Gloss Fine Linen provides an eye-catching speciality finish for premium packaging, covers, presentation materials and high-quality commercial print where both texture and visual impact are important.

What is Thermal Textured Gloss Fine Linen?

Thermal Textured Gloss Fine Linen is a biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) lamination film featuring a fine linen-effect textured surface combined with an attractive gloss appearance.

The woven pattern creates a tactile surface inspired by the character of linen fabric, adding another dimension to the finished print.

Its glossy appearance allows light to interact with the textured surface, helping to emphasise the Fine Linen pattern while enhancing the colour and visual impact of the printed design beneath.

A thermoadhesive coating on the reverse of the film activates during thermal lamination, providing a practical way for printers and finishers to introduce a speciality textured finish without requiring a separate wet adhesive.
