    5. Extruded-Film

    An adhesive coating can be applied to one or both sides of the aluminum foil and are used to make foil package seams and closures, and to bond elements of other foil products to themselves and other materials.

    The four types of coated products offered by Lester Metals for aluminum foil include:

    Decorative coatings for aluminum foil are used to apply both color and/or design such as a company logo. Protective Coatings are added to the foil for resistance to abrasion, finger prints, chemicals, as well as strengthen the foil. Heat Seal Coatings can be used (based on applications) for bond strength, air tight seams and closures. Extruded Films consist of a molten liquid of various plastics used to create a bond to produce various laminations.
