What is Single sided smooth aluminum foil？
Single sided smooth aluminum foil is a type of aluminum foil with one surface bright and smooth, and the other side matte. It is produced by double-rolling two layers of foil together and then separating them, resulting in the outer side being glossy and the inner side dull. Commonly made from alloys like 1235, 8011, or 8021, it offers good barrier performance, corrosion resistance, and formability. Thickness usually ranges from 6 µm to 0.2 mm, with widths from 100 mm to 1700 mm, available in tempers such as O (soft) or H18 (hard). The bright side provides reflectivity and visual appeal, while the matte side is better for printing, coating, or lamination. It is widely used in packaging, insulation, labeling, and various industrial applications, often produced in compliance with EN 546 or similar standards.Learn about Double-sided smooth aluminum foil

What are Single sided smooth aluminum foil foils used for?
What are the characteristics of Single sided smooth aluminum foil?
Single sided smooth aluminum foil has several key characteristics:
-
One bright, smooth surface and one matte side – achieved through double-rolling and separation, giving distinct functional and visual properties.
-
Excellent barrier performance – effectively blocks moisture, light, oxygen, and odors, making it ideal for packaging.
-
Lightweight yet strong – thin (typically 6 µm to 0.2 mm) but with good tensile strength, especially in hardened tempers like H18.
-
Good formability – can be easily folded, wrapped, or laminated without cracking, especially in soft temper (O).
-
Corrosion resistance – stable in most environments and suitable for food-contact applications.
-
High reflectivity – bright side reflects heat and light, useful for insulation and decorative purposes.
-
Surface adaptability – matte side offers better adhesion for printing, coating, or lamination; surface can also be polished, coated, or embossed.
-
Available in various alloys and tempers – such as 1235, 8011, or 8021 in O, H14, H18, etc., to meet different performance needs.
-
Manufactured to precise standards – with tight thickness tolerances and controlled pinhole levels, often per EN 546 or GB/T 3198.
