1. Cost Efficiency Breakdown: Why Choose BOPP?
While both are high-quality polymers, their chemical density and manufacturing processes create a significant price gap:
| Key Features | BOPP Film (Polypropylene) | POF Film (Polyolefin) |
|---|---|---|
| Raw Material Cost | Lower (High global PP availability) | Higher (Complex co-extrusion) |
| Density (g/cm³) | Approx. 0.90 - 0.91 | Approx. 0.92 |
| Final Unit Cost | Very Economical (Saves 20-40%) | Premium Price Point |
