Walki lamibel
Innovation in PE Film Lamination for Circular Packaging
PPWR-ready PE lamination films designed for recyclable monomaterial packaging
Made for performance. Designed for recycling.
Walki®Lamibel films are advanced lamination materials developed for flexible packaging converters seeking recyclable monomaterial solutions. Designed for duplex and triplex structures, they provide excellent sealability, stiffness and processability while remaining compatible with standard PE recycling streams. Available in PE, XDPE and MDO-PE grades, they offer extensive customisation, surface properties, seal profiles and optical characteristics to meet diverse application requirements.
PE Film Lamination Materials for Converters
Walki®Lamibel is a family of high-performance polyethylene films developed for flexible packaging converters and printers requiring recyclable laminated structures.
The films are designed to function as:
- Lamination films
- Sealing layers
- Printable mono-films
- Structural films in duplex and triplex laminates
Unlike traditional multilayer packaging using incompatible materials, Walki Lamibel films enable mono-PE packaging structures that can be recycled in standard PE recycling streams.
This approach supports the transition towards circular packaging solutions aligned with European packaging legislation.
Walki Lamibel films combine:
- Excellent sealability
- High transparency
- Controlled stiffness
- Reliable processability
- Customisable friction properties
- High mechanical strength
The result is laminated packaging structures that perform reliably on converting lines and remain recyclable after use.

CUSTOMISATION
Engineered for Converter Requirements
Walki PE lamination films are manufactured on state-of-the-art extrusion lines that provide accurate control over film structure and performance. This allows converters to tailor material properties to specific processing conditions, packaging formats and application demands.
Seal performance, surface friction and mechanical behaviour can all be fine-tuned to ensure stable operation on high-speed lamination and filling lines.
The result is consistent performance in duplex and triplex laminates while preserving full compatibility with the standard PE recycling stream.
Seal profiles
Low Seal Initiation Temperature (SIT), A+A or A+B sealability, peelable or permanent seals
Surface properties
Tailored COF for smooth web handling and efficient converting
Optical performance
High transparency, controlled haze, white or matte finishes for premium appearance
Mechanical strength
Impact resistance, stiffness adjustment and structural reinforcement
Barrier integration
Compatibility with functional barrier layers in recyclable PE structures
Printing optimisation
Surface treatment for high-quality flexo and gravure printing
Format flexibility
Mono-layer films or lamination films, reel widths up to 2600 mm
PPWR Ready
Designed for Compliance with EU Packaging Regulations
Walki PE lamination films are developed to align with the requirements of the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). By enabling mono-PE laminated structures, they help converters design packaging that is compatible with established polyethylene recycling streams and ready for the 2030 recyclability targets.
The films are engineered for circularity, replacing non-compatible materials such as PET and PP with PE-based alternatives that simplify structure design and improve end-of-life handling. Optimised thickness and material efficiency further contribute to resource reduction without compromising packaging performance.
With Walki Lamibel, converters can proactively adapt their flexible packaging portfolios to meet both current and future European regulatory expectations.

Walki PE film materials are used by flexible packaging converters to produce recyclable laminated structures and mono-PE packaging. They function as sealing layers, structural layers or printable mono-films in duplex and triplex laminates for food and non-food applications.
Yes. Walki PE films are polyethylene-based and designed for compatibility with standard PE recycling streams. They enable mono-PE packaging structures that align with circular design principles and European recyclability targets.
Walki PE films support compliance with the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) by enabling recyclable mono-PE laminated structures. They allow replacement of non-compatible mix-materials such as PET and PP, helping converters prepare for the 2030 recyclability requirements.
Walki offers extensive customisation including seal profiles such as low SIT, A+A or A+B sealability, tailored COF, matte or glossy finishes, stiffness adjustment, impact resistance and print-optimised surfaces. Films can be engineered for specific converting speeds, filling lines and end-use performance.
Standard PE provides reliable sealability and processability.
XDPE offers higher stiffness and improved structural performance.
MDO-PE uses orientation technology to enhance stiffness and transparency, enabling replacement of PET or PP in recyclable mono-PE laminate structures.
