Golden Color Metallic PET Film

Golden color metallic PET film is a gold-tone vacuum-metalized polyester film used as a raw material in packaging lamination, decorative conversion, label production, ribbon manufacturing, and other applications where a metallic gold appearance is required. It is a specific color variant within ONE Plastic's metalized PET film product range.

The gold metallic effect is achieved by applying a vacuum-deposited aluminum layer to a PET base film, then adding a gold-tinted lacquer or coating to shift the metallic appearance from silver to gold. The result is a film with a warm, reflective gold surface that is consistent in color, highly reflective, and suitable for high-speed converting and lamination processes.

ONE Plastic manufactures golden color metallic PET film on dedicated metallizing and coating lines. We supply this film in roll form to packaging converters, label printers, ribbon manufacturers, and decorative product makers who use it as a lamination layer, overwrap, or converting substrate in their production processes.

Why Choose Golden Color Metallic PET Film?

Buyers choose golden metallic PET film when their product or packaging requires a premium metallic gold appearance without the cost, weight, or handling complexity of actual gold foil or metallic paper.

Premium Visual Impact: The gold metallic surface creates a luxury, high-end appearance that communicates quality and value. This is why gold metalized film is widely used in premium packaging, gift wrapping, and branded label applications where shelf appeal and perceived value are important.

Consistent Gold Color Across Rolls: Unlike some metallic papers or foils that can vary in shade from batch to batch, our golden metallic PET film is produced with controlled coating processes that deliver consistent gold tone across production runs. This is important for brand owners and packaging converters who need color uniformity across multi-roll orders.

Versatile Converting Compatibility: Golden metallic PET film is designed for use in standard converting processes including lamination (wet and dry), slitting, die cutting, embossing, and printing. It integrates into existing production lines without special handling or equipment modifications.

Lightweight and Strong: The PET base film provides high tensile strength at low weight. This means the gold metallic effect adds minimal weight to the finished product, which matters for packaging cost, shipping weight, and retail handling.

Moisture and Chemical Resistant: The metalized PET structure offers good resistance to humidity-related deterioration and maintains its appearance well under normal storage and converting conditions. Products made with this film retain their gold appearance over time without tarnishing under typical handling.

Applications of Golden Color Metallic PET Film

Packaging Lamination

The most common commercial application. Golden metallic PET film is laminated to paper, paperboard, or other plastic substrates to create metallic gold packaging for cosmetics, perfume, chocolate, spirits, tea, coffee, and other premium consumer goods. The lamination gives the packaging a reflective gold surface that conveys luxury positioning.

Labels and Stickers

Golden metallic PET film is used as the face stock or lamination layer for premium product labels, wine and spirits labels, and branded stickers. The gold surface combined with high-quality printing produces eye-catching labels that stand out on retail shelves.

Ribbons and Bows

The film is slit into narrow widths and used to produce decorative metallic gold ribbons for gift packaging, floral arrangements, and event decoration. Gold is one of the most popular ribbon colors for premium gift wrapping and branded packaging applications. For ribbon material used specifically in Christmas and seasonal decoration, we also offer a dedicated metalized PET film for Christmas decoration product.

Gift Wrapping and Decorative Paper

Golden metallic PET film is laminated to tissue paper or kraft paper to create metallic gold wrapping paper and decorative paper products. The film provides the metallic surface layer while the paper substrate provides body and foldability.

Hot Stamping and Transfer Foil Base

In some applications, metalized PET film serves as a carrier or base material for hot stamping foil production, where the gold metallic layer is transferred to packaging, cards, or printed materials through a heat-and-pressure process.

Golden Metallic PET Film vs. Silver Metallic PET Film

Both gold and silver variants share the same PET base film and aluminum metallization process. The gold color is achieved by an additional tinted lacquer or coating layer applied after metallization. ONE Plastic manufactures both variants on the same production lines.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the gold color achieved?

The gold metallic effect is produced by vacuum-depositing an aluminum layer onto a PET base film, then applying a gold-tinted lacquer or coating over the metalized surface. This shifts the natural silver appearance of the aluminum to a warm gold tone. The gold shade can be adjusted during the coating process to produce lighter or darker gold tones.

What thicknesses are available?

We offer golden color metallic PET film in thicknesses from 12 micron to 36 micron. Thinner gauges (12-15 micron) are most common for flexible packaging lamination. Thicker gauges (25-36 micron) are used for labels, structured decorative products, and applications requiring more body.

Can I get a custom gold shade?

Yes. We can adjust the gold tint to produce lighter, darker, or warmer/cooler gold tones. Custom color matching is available against your reference sample or color specification. Custom gold shades are subject to MOQ requirements.

Is golden metallic PET film suitable for food packaging?

Metalized PET film is widely used in food packaging lamination structures. However, the film is typically used as an outer decorative layer laminated to a food-safe inner substrate, not as a direct food-contact surface. If your application requires food-contact compliance for the metalized layer itself, please specify this when requesting a quote.

Can this film be printed on?

Yes. The gold metallic surface can accept printing for branded or patterned designs. Contact our team to discuss print compatibility and ink adhesion for your specific application.

What is the minimum order quantity?

Contact our sales team for current MOQ based on your required thickness, width, gold shade, and quantity.
