Britannia Plastics Limited supplies high-performance multi-layer plastic films and packaging solutions to industrial, food, and agricultural sectors across the United Kingdom and Europe.
Britannia Plastics Limited is a UK-based specialist in high-performance plastic packaging films. We supply premium multi-layer co-extruded films engineered for demanding applications across industrial, food, and agricultural markets.
Our advanced 9-layer air blown co-extrusion technology produces films with superior barrier properties, mechanical strength, and optical clarity — tailored precisely to our customers' specifications.
Headquartered in London, we operate with the agility to deliver custom solutions on time, with the technical depth to engineer them right the first time.
Up to 9-layer co-extruded films delivering engineered barrier and mechanical performance.
Bespoke widths, gauges, and resin blends engineered to your exact application requirements.
Recyclable film formulations and responsible material sourcing to meet your ESG commitments.
Rigorous quality management systems ensuring consistency across every production run.
From heavy-duty pallet wrap to precision food barrier films, our product range is engineered to perform in the most demanding environments.
Ergonomically designed hand-applied stretch wrap for manual pallet securing and bundling. Pre-stretch formulations reduce fatigue and material usage.
Factory pre-stretched film offering up to 300% elongation before application. Reduces material usage by up to 50% versus standard films while maintaining load containment force.
High-performance machine-applied stretch film for automated pallet wrapping lines. Superior load retention and puncture resistance for demanding logistics operations.
Heavy-duty polyethylene pallet covers providing weather protection and dust prevention for stored and transported goods.
High-clarity polyolefin and polyethylene shrink films for bundling, multi-packing, and retail presentation. Excellent shrink response and gloss.
Tubular stretch hood film for automated stretch hooding systems. Superior load stability, waterproofing, and all-round pallet protection.
Multi-layer blown film sacks engineered for bulk materials, construction aggregates, and heavy industrial products. Excellent puncture and tear resistance.
Biaxially oriented polypropylene films with outstanding clarity, stiffness, and moisture barrier. Widely used for snack food, confectionery, and labelling applications.
Biaxially oriented polyester films offering exceptional tensile strength, temperature resistance, and barrier properties. Ideal for retort, boil-in-bag, and technical laminates.
Machine direction oriented polyethylene films combining the recyclability of PE with improved stiffness, clarity, and barrier — enabling mono-material flexible packaging structures.
Multi-layer films with EVOH or PVDC barrier core delivering superior oxygen, moisture, and aroma protection for extended shelf life of chilled and ambient foods.
Peelable and non-peelable lidding films for rigid trays. Excellent seal integrity, controlled peel force, and optical clarity for retail presentation of fresh and processed foods.
Easy-peel and permanent heat-sealing films for horizontal and vertical form-fill-seal lines. Consistent seal initiation temperature and wide sealing window for high-speed production.
Optically clear and sealable lamination films for flexible packaging structures. Compatible with solvent-free and solvent-based printed substrate lamination processes.
PA/PE and PA/EVOH/PE co-extruded vacuum pouches delivering excellent barrier and thermoformability for chilled and frozen food packaging.
Multi-layer standup pouches with integral gusset base. Available with resealable zipper, spout, or tear notch for liquids, snacks, pet food, and powders.
High-barrier retort pouches designed to withstand sterilisation at 121°C. BOPET/aluminium/PP and all-polymer structures for shelf-stable ready meals and pet food.
Precision-sealed flat and pillow sachets for single-dose condiments, sauces, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products. Fin-seal and back-seal configurations available.
Wide-web rollstock films for thermoforming and HFFS/VFFS converting lines. Supplied to exact width, core size, and tension specifications for seamless integration into automated lines.
Standup pouches with integrated reclosable spout for beverages, sauces, baby food, and liquid personal care products. Child-resistant and standard cap configurations available.
UV-stabilised polyethylene greenhouse films with anti-drip and thermal IR additives for optimal growing conditions and extended film lifetime.
5–7 layer co-extruded silage bale wrap with high cling, UV protection, and oxygen barrier performance to preserve forage quality.
Black and reflective PE mulch films for soil temperature regulation, weed suppression, and moisture retention. Available in standard and biodegradable grades.
Perforated and non-perforated low tunnel films for early season crop protection. Excellent light transmission and thermal properties.
Transparent polyethylene solarisation film that traps solar heat to disinfect soil of pathogens, nematodes, weeds, and fungal diseases without chemicals. Applied during fallow periods before planting.
Our advanced manufacturing capabilities enable us to engineer plastic films with properties that standard commodity films cannot achieve.
Our state-of-the-art 9-layer air blown co-extrusion lines represent the pinnacle of plastic film engineering. By combining up to nine distinct polymer layers in a single production pass, we engineer films with precisely tuned barrier properties, mechanical strength, optical characteristics, and sealability — impossible to replicate with fewer layers.
Each layer is independently controlled for thickness and resin composition, enabling extraordinary customisation for barrier performance, adhesion, sealing, and structural integrity.
Our blown film lines process up to 9 polymer layers simultaneously. Independent extruder control enables precise layer ratios and material combinations for tailored film architecture.
Up to 8-colour flexographic printing integrated inline with film production. Consistent registration, fast changeover, and brand-accurate colour reproduction across all substrates.
Solventless adhesive and extrusion lamination lines bond dissimilar substrates — film-to-film, film-to-foil, and film-to-paper — delivering composite structures with enhanced barrier and performance.
Automated slitting to precise widths with inline gauge measurement, defect detection, and roll tracking. Every roll is measured, inspected, and certified before despatch.
Quality management systems certified to international standard, ensuring consistent product quality and continual improvement across all operations.
All food-contact films comply with EU Regulation 10/2011 and UK retained law on plastic materials in contact with food.
Our mono-material and recyclable film ranges are designed for compliance with UK Plastics Packaging Tax regulations and circular economy targets.
Not all film suppliers are equal. Here is why leading manufacturers, food processors, and agricultural businesses choose Britannia Plastics as their long-term packaging partner.
We do not resell commodity film. Our 9-layer air blown co-extrusion capability lets us engineer film properties from the molecular level up — adjusting barrier layers, sealant layers, and structural layers independently to match your exact specification.
Our London headquarters provides a single point of contact for UK and European customers. No language barriers, same time zone, and a team that understands local regulatory requirements, lead times, and logistics.
We work with customers to develop bespoke film specifications — custom widths, thicknesses, resin blends, colours, and printing — without pushing you toward a commodity product that nearly fits your application.
We invest time understanding your production processes, packaging equipment, and performance requirements. Our technical team provides ongoing support, film trials, and development of next-generation solutions as your business evolves.
