Holographic Mylar Bags

If you want functional and aesthetic packaging, holographic Mylar bags are the most potent option. Like all Mylar bags, they are made of BoPET (Biaxially Oriented Polyethylene Terephthalate) film. Nonetheless, they are different from the rest of the Mylar types because they have a holographic coating that gives them a reflective and multi-dimensional appearance. 

Custom holographic mylar bags are used to pack a wide range of products, such as food items, supplements, pharmaceutical products, cannabis, and much more. The unique holographic features on the bags are not only useful in giving an attractive appearance but also help reflect the light and protect against moisture. Brands that have perishable items usually prefer this style of mylar bags due to the temper evident and secure packaging.

Get Sturdy Mylar Bags 

At our company, we don’t compromise on the quality of bags, whether it comes to the styles or the manufacturing of raw materials. We use BoPET film, which has the enhanced properties of PET. Using our custom printed mylar bags, brands can ensure that their packed items are secure. The three qualities of BoPET material that make outstanding bags are as follows:

Structure And Strength 

BoPET is manufactured by stretching PET plastic in both the longitudinal and transverse directions. This process gives the film tensile strength and flexibility, allowing the resulting personalized holographic mylar bags to withstand external stresses such as punctures and tears.

Transparency And Durability

This film is naturally transparent, so brands that want transparency efficiently use BoPET directly, specifically for products where visibility is essential. This material is resistant to UV rays, protecting sensitive items like cannabis from light. 

Barrier Properties

One of the main reasons this material is an excellent option for packing sensitive or perishable products is its excellent barrier properties. You can use it to make smell-proof Mylar bags and keep moisture, oxygen, and contaminants from your products. 

Thickness Of BoPET Film

The thickness of the material used to manufacture your customized holographic mylar bags matters a lot. This thickness typically ranges from 89 µm to 178 µm (3.5 mils to 7 mils) and impacts the protective ability of the bags. Thicker films are used for fragile products that need additional protection, such as the material used to manufacture custom spout mylar bags to pack liquids with thicknesses of around 178 µm. Other products that need flexible packaging can be packed in thinner films of around 89 µm. 

Styles And Shapes Of Holographic Mylar Bags

Our custom holographic mylars are valued in various styles and shapes, each suitable for a different application. Some of the common styles of custom-printed holographic mylar bags are as follows: 

• Flat Pouch

The standard sizes of customized holographic bags are shown in the table below:

Coatings For Additional Protective And Functional Properties

The bags’ holographic effect is achieved through applying different coatings. These coatings not only increase the visual appearance of the custom bags made of mylar but also enhance the protective ability of the packaging. Some of the coating options to produce holographic effects are as follows: 

Holographic coatings 

Holographic coatings are the main thing that distinguishes holographic mylar packaging bags from other types of mylars. To ensure an error-free application of these bags, we use the following options: 

Laser Etching

Laser etching is a process in which microscopic 3D images are created on the material’s surface. This image or structure diffracts light and creates a visible holographic image when light falls on it. Holographic bags are an ideal option for adding security features to products, as these designs are difficult to replicate. They also add visual appeal and produce different images based on the angle of view. 

Metalized Film

Our company offers custom holographic mylar bags with no minimum design limitation or creativity hindrance. Apart from laser etching, we use metallic film to create holographic mylars. In this process, we apply a metallic layer on the surface of the mylar material and then, etc. to produce a holographic effect. This method gives reflective ability to the bags, making them shiny in appearance. 

Hot Stamping

In hot stamping, heat transfers a thin layer of metallic foil onto the mylar material. This film creates a vibrant, shiny surface imprinted with different patterns to create a holographic effect. 

Printing Processes On Holographic Mylar Bags

When printing on holographic mylars, we have to select specialized methods that do not interfere with the holographic effects. For custom-printed holographic mylar bags, various printing processes are available. The selection is based on the complexity of the design and the quantity of bags. Some of the common printing processes that we have are as follows: 

• Offset Printing
• Screen Printing
• Digital Printing
• Gravure Printing
• Flexographic Printing

Laser And Inkjet Printing on Holographic Mylar Bags

Some customer prefers to get their bags printed with inkjet methods on holographic custom shaped bags. Nonetheless, we do not prefer this method due to multiple reasons. This is because these printers work by fusing toners via heat onto the surface. The application of heat can warp or degrade the surface of holographic material. 

On the other hand, inkjet printing is compatible with the production of custom holographic mylar bags with logos, but not in large quantities. This is because, in this method, specialized inks that are compatible with the holographic surface are required, cost high, and have limited durability compared to the designs produced by other printing methods.

2D Vs. 3D Holographic Bags

Most brands have one concern, which is to determine whether to choose 2D holographic film or 3D holographic film and what the difference is between the two. At our company, our main target is to address the pain points of the user; therefore, we give the answers to all your queries. From stand-up pouches to flat base mylars, whatever the options you are getting from us, we cater to you in a holistic manner. So, 3D and 2D holographic pouches are available to us. The main difference is that: 

2D Holographic Bags

In these bags, holographic patterns that have a reflective and shimmering effect are present. The design changes as you change the angle of the view. Nonetheless, in 2D holographic bags, the depth and dimensionality of the design are absent. The effect is fl, which definitely catches the light but does not create depth. 

3D Holographic Bags

In 3D personalized holographic mylar bags, the bags have intricate holographic patterns that create a dynamic and immersive effect. The design of the film changes with the change in the angle of view, giving you a three-dimensional appearance that gives a luxurious look to the bags.
