Mineral Oil Barrier Films (MOBF) are advanced multilayer films developed to prevent the migration of mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) from packaging materials—such as recycled paperboard, inks, or adhesives—into food and other sensitive products. Migration of MOSH (Mineral Oil Saturated Hydrocarbons) and MOAH (Mineral Oil Aromatic Hydrocarbons) has become a critical safety concern in food packaging, as even small amounts can affect product safety and quality.
Our mineral oil barrier films provide exceptional resistance to hydrocarbon migration, ensuring compliance with global food safety standards. They not only block mineral oil transfer but also offer protection against oxygen, moisture, grease, and aroma loss. These films are widely used in food packaging, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and premium consumer goods, especially for dry products like cereals, pasta, rice, chocolate, and powdered foods.
Available in transparent, opaque, and metallized formats, they offer excellent printability, heat-seal properties, and durability. By choosing Mineral Oil Barrier Films, brands can safeguard product integrity, comply with strict regulations, and deliver consumer trust while maintaining attractive, eco-friendly packaging.
