White BOPP Label Material

It is used for product labels that need to survive water, oils and handling — cosmetics and personal care bottles, household and industrial chemical containers, beverages, chilled foods and industrial packaging. Anywhere a paper label would wrinkle, tear or discolour, white BOPP is the default film choice.

Both are polypropylene. White BOPP is a thin (50–80 µm) gloss or matte film for bottle and container labels. PP synthetic paper is thicker (80–120 µm), matte, writable and stiffer — used where the label must feel like paper but not tear.

Yes. The film itself absorbs no water, so it does not swell, wrinkle or lose print. Full waterproof performance also depends on the adhesive: choose a water-resistant permanent acrylic for immersion, condensation or wash-down applications.

Yes, with a freezer-grade adhesive. The film stays flexible down to about -40 °C; the adhesive sets the real limit, so tell us whether the label is applied before or after freezing and at what surface temperature.

The top-coated surface prints flexo, offset, letterpress, screen, UV inkjet, HP Indigo and thermal transfer. For thermal transfer, use the TT-coated grade with a resin ribbon — wax ribbons do not anchor to film and will smear.

Polypropylene is recyclable, and BOPP separates by flotation in PET bottle wash processes. However, standard adhesive residue can contaminate the recovered flake, so for bottle-to-bottle recycling specify our wash-off adhesive or a recycling-compatible construction.

Stock white BOPP constructions start at one jumbo roll; custom facestock, adhesive or liner combinations start at 3,000–5,000 m². Free samples are available, quotes are returned within one business day, and typical production lead time is 7–15 days after artwork and spec confirmation.
