Milk Films
Milk film is made from LDPE-based material, formulated for milk pouches. Milk spoils faster than water, so the film has to seal reliably and keep the milk clean. We make it from virgin material, strong enough for the filling line, crates and cold storage, and print it with inks chosen for deep freeze use.

Milk film is an LDPE film processed by multilayer blown film extrusion.
In general, LDPE is used in dairy packaging and is popular for applications where heat sealing is required due to its toughness, flexibility, relative clarity and lowest softening point.
These films can be printed or unprinted, natural or opaque.
Different polymers can be added to each of the three layers to meet the food grade requirements to meet the customer's individual requirement
Milk requires extra protection as it attracts more bacteria than water and other liquid products. That is why milk film must seal cleanly and stay strong in crates and cold storage.

Features
Made for dairy lines: film made to the width, thickness and core size your pouch machine needs.
Virgin material: we use virgin material for food contact, never recycled plastic.
Printed to your brand: multi-colour printing with inks chosen to hold up from delivery vans to cold storage.
Sealing: the film is made to seal cleanly at machine speed, because one leaking pouch wets a whole crate.
Checked before dispatch: rolls are checked before they leave our plant.
Applications
Milk film is used by dairies and milk co-operatives to pack:
- Toned, double toned and full cream milk pouches
- Buttermilk (chhach), lassi and curd (dahi) pouches
The film is fed to a form-fill-seal pouch machine, which forms, fills and seals the pouches. Common pouch sizes are 200 ml, 500 ml and 1 litre.

Frequently Asked Questions
To keep light away from the milk. Light spoils milk faster, giving it an off taste and breaking down some vitamins, so many dairies use co-extruded film with a black inner layer to block light. The white outer layer gives a clean background for the print. We make milk film by multilayer blown film extrusion, and can make it natural or opaque as you need.
There is no one micron for every dairy. Bigger packs, longer transport and rough handling in crates all need thicker film, while small packs on a short route can run thinner. Send us your pack size, your filling machine and the film you use today, and we will match it or suggest a change.
Yes. We use virgin material for food contact, and our milk film is made from specially formulated LDPE. The print sits on the outside of the pouch, and our inks are chosen for chilled and deep-freeze storage.
Most leaks come from the seal or from handling, not from the film itself. Milk splashing on the sealing area, wrong sealing temperature and worn jaws give weak seals, while overfilled crates and drops in cold storage cause pinholes and burst pouches. Tell us where your pouches leak and at what stage, and we will check both the film and the setup with you.
Yes for buttermilk, lassi and similar dairy drinks, which run on the same pouch machines as milk. Curd usually goes in cups, but pouch packs can use the same film family. For drinking water we make a separate printed water pouch film.
