POLYPROPYLENE (OPP)

Polypropylene, known as OPP, is an economical choice for enhancing and preserving your printed materials.  OPP Gloss films have high clarity and create a "wet look" when laminated to your printed materials.  Matte films are designed to reduce glare and cause little or no color shift.  OPP has a good overall balance of properties and is a favorite choice in the industry when the intended life of the product is shorter, cost of finishing is a concern, yet surface enhancement and protection is needed.
