What material is used for potato chip bags?

Packaging and Containers: What is the material used in glistening, metallic-looking potato chip bags?

  • Answer:

    Normally the material is a Multi-layer film - each layer catering to different functions of the package like printability, seability and barrier properties.  The shiny-glistening material (normally on the inside) is a layer of film metallized with aluminium, or a thin layer of aluminium foil itself.
