As an ISO 9001:2015 certified company established in 1998, we manufacture high-quality co-extruded LDPE and HDPE surface protection films designed to safeguard surfaces from scratches, dust, dirt, moisture, and abrasion during manufacturing, transportation, storage, and installation. Our films serve diverse industries including glass manufacturing, metal fabrication, furniture production, automotive, construction, and electronics. With state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities and a commitment to quality, we have grown into a trusted partner for over 50 countries worldwide, exporting to USA, UAE, UK, China, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and beyond.
Whether you need non-glue static cling films for stainless steel and glass, or glue-based adhesive films for textured panels and ACP, our custom specifications range from 30 to 200 microns in thickness with widths up to 2000 mm. Every roll we produce meets stringent quality standards backed by Bureau Veritas certification, ensuring residue-free removal and long-lasting protection your business can rely on.
What is Surface Protection Film?
Surface protection film is a temporary self-adhesive plastic film applied to delicate or finished surfaces to prevent damage during the various stages of manufacturing, processing, transit, storage, and installation. Also known as masking film or protective film, it acts as a removable barrier shielding the underlying surface from scratches, dust accumulation, dirt particles, moisture exposure, mechanical abrasion, and UV degradation.
The film is engineered with a polyethylene base material — typically LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene), HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene), or a co-extruded multilayer polyethylene structure — that provides flexibility, conformability, and tear resistance. Depending on the application, the film either uses a low-tack acrylic adhesive coating or relies on static cling (non-adhesive) for residue-free removal.
Surface protection films are widely used by manufacturers, fabricators, glaziers, furniture producers, sheet metal processors, automotive OEMs, and construction material suppliers. They are essential for high-value finished surfaces such as stainless steel sheets, mirror glass, painted aluminium, polished wood panels, and architectural composite panels (ACP), where even minor surface damage can render an expensive product unsellable.
Types of Surface Protection Film We Manufacture
As a complete surface protection film manufacturer and exporter India, Ikon Multipack offers a comprehensive range of film variants tailored to diverse application needs. Each variant is engineered with specific adhesion characteristics, base materials, and thickness profiles to suit different substrates and end-use requirements.
Non-Glue Static Cling Surface Protection Film
Our non-glue surface protection films use a co-extruded tacky layer technology that grips surfaces through static cling rather than adhesive coating. This design delivers completely residue-free removal — ideal for high-value finished surfaces like stainless steel mirror polish, glass panels, anodised aluminium, and decorative laminates where any adhesive residue is unacceptable. Available in thickness from 30 to 100 microns.
Glue-Based Adhesive Surface Protection Film
For textured, embossed, porous, or irregular surfaces requiring stronger tack, we manufacture glue-based films with custom acrylic adhesive coatings. Adhesion levels range from low-tack (5–15 g/25mm) to high-tack (30–50 g/25mm), allowing us to match the exact substrate requirement. Suitable for ACP panels, PVC profiles, gypsum boards, painted metals, and powder-coated surfaces.
Co-extruded Multilayer Films
Our advanced 5-layer co-extrusion blown film line produces multilayer surface protection films that combine durability with cost efficiency. These films deliver enhanced UV stability (up to 6 months outdoor durability), tear resistance, and consistent thickness across width — engineered for industrial-scale applications where reliability matters most.
Custom Specifications
Every Ikon Multipack surface protection film can be custom-manufactured to your exact specification — width, thickness, color, adhesion level, UV stabiliser package, and roll length. We produce films from 30 to 200 microns thick, in widths up to 2000 mm, and roll lengths up to 2,000 metres.

Industries We Serve
Our surface protection films are trusted across a wide range of industries, from precision glass fabrication to heavy-duty construction. Below are the major sectors where our products deliver consistent results.
Glass Industry
Float glass, tempered glass, mirror glass, and architectural glass manufacturers rely on our UV-resistant surface protection films during cutting, edging, transport, and installation. Our non-glue static cling variants are particularly popular for high-end mirror and decorative glass applications. Learn more on our Glass Industry page.
Metal Industry
Stainless steel mills, aluminium fabricators, galvanised steel suppliers, and pre-painted metal sheet processors use our films to protect finished surfaces from scratches and corrosion during shipping and downstream processing. Adhesion levels are precisely matched to substrate finish — from brushed stainless to mirror-polished aluminium. See Metal Industry applications.
Furniture Industry
Furniture manufacturers, panel producers, and laminate suppliers protect MDF, polished wood, high-gloss panels, and decorative laminates with our residue-free films. Visit our Furniture page for details.
Construction & Building Materials
ACP (Aluminium Composite Panel) manufacturers, PVC profile producers, gypsum board suppliers, and finished construction material exporters use our heavy-duty films with strong UV resistance and acrylic adhesives.
