Food grade aluminum foil can be found everywhere such as beverage bags, food packaging bags and containers that we commonly use. The price of aluminum foil for food packaging depends on alloy, specifications, technical requirements and dosage.
The common kinds of aluminum foil for food packaging are 8011/H22, 8011 / H24, 8011 / O and 3003 / H24 aluminum foil. Generally, the price of 3 series aluminum foil is higher than that of 8 series aluminum foil.
The requirements for the properties of food aluminum foil are mainly for tensile strength and elongation. With high elongation, it is not easy to crack when stamped. At the same time, it should be of no oil stains and no odor to meet the requirements of food packaging.
Food grade aluminum foil is usually light gauge foil. Different thicknesses have different prices. Generally, the thinner the thickness, the higher the price. As an aluminium foil jumbo roll manufacturer, Haomei Aluminum introduces some uses of food aluminum foil and its specifications:
