Cellophane is a thin transparent sheet.
Made from the glucose-polymer, cellulose.
Extracted from natural resources such as wood, cotton or hemp.
Cellophane is sought after for florists, food & gift packaging due to its low permeability to moisture, oxygen, bacteria, oils and greases.
The next alternative, Cellophane - BOPP, Biaxially-Oriented Polypropylene.
It is polypropylene biaxially stretched to cellophane thickness & transparency.
Natural cellophane & cellophane - BOPP both consist similar properties and are essentially interchangeable.
Yet natural cellophane is biodegradable and cellophane - BOPP is recyclable.
Cellophane - BOPP is cheaper since natural materials are harder to source.
