Clear Moisture-Resistant Polyester Film

Widely used as packaging, this polyester film absorbs almost no moisture and resists swelling in wet environments. It is also known as PET and PETE.

Ultra-Electrically-Insulating Polyester Film

An aluminum coating on this film reflects heat, so it’s widely used as an insulator and in packaging applications. Made of polyester, which is also called PET and PETE, this wear-resistant film is comparable to Mylar.

High-Temperature Polyester Film

Often used as a separator when heating parts in an oven, this wear-resistant film can also protect surfaces when etching or sanding. Also called PET and PETE, polyester resists swelling when exposed to moisture. When used as a separator, film should be cut larger than the piece it is being released from.

Skived—Skived products are more likely to curl than extruded and molded products.

Smooth Texture—Film with a smooth texture releases cleanly from rubber and most synthetic resins.

Rough Texture—The rough texture masks scratches, scuffs, and fingerprints.

Clear Static-Dissipative Polyester Film

A static-dissipative coating on this polyester film prevents electrostatic discharge from damaging sensitive electronic equipment. It is also known as PET and PETE.
