VCI films

Propatech VCI Film

Co-extruded VCI film

Three-layer transparent film: the inner layer protects at once, the middle layer holds a VCI reserve, the outer layer keeps the inhibitor inside the pack.

Transparent3 layers

Best forMachined parts, gears and shafts in boxes and bins

Propatech VCI Film T1500

High-strength transparent VCI film

Three to five layers with high puncture resistance and low water-vapor permeability, at up to 30% less thickness than standard film. Less plastic, lower disposal cost.

3–5 layersUp to 30% thinner

Best forHeavy and sharp-edged automotive and industrial parts

Propasteel VCI

Puncture-resistant VCI film

Built for the steel and metal industry, where ordinary film tears on pipes, coils and protruding parts. 100% recyclable mono-material and easy to heat-seal.

RecyclableHeat-sealable

Best forPipes, coils and machinery with sharp edges

Propaskin VCI

High-elasticity VCI film

Multilayer film that combines high tear and puncture resistance with stretch, so it follows complex shapes and reaches recesses.

3–5 layersElastic

Best forIrregular and complex-shaped components

Propatech VCI Stretch

VCI stretch film

Co-extruded stretch film that wraps the product like a second skin. Applied by hand or machine, it replaces oiling and greasing.
