WHO WE ARELoparex is a global manufacturer of paper, poly-coated, and film release liners. We provide in-depth technical expertise, state-of-the-art production technology, flexible service programs, and an experienced Sales and R&D team driving global innovation, all backed by a commitment to meeting and exceeding customer expectations in quality, performance and service.

WHAT WE OFFERLoparex offers release liner solutions on a wide variety of paper and film substrates. We provide all silicone types and curing methods to optimize the release properties of the final product.

LOPASIL® Direct Coated PapersPaper release liners with silicone coated directly to one or both sides. Base paper and silicone formulations are selected to provide specific properties suitable for each end-use application. All are available with a solvent-free or a solvent-based coating and with easy or modified release properties. LOPASIL® liners are often used in applications where strength and temperature resistance are critical, as well as applications requiring the most economical solutions.

POLY SLIK® Poly-coated PapersExtrusion coated and siliconised release papers with good dimensional stability, layflatness and smoothness. POLY SLIK® liners are widely recognized for their versatility with C1S and C2S poly-coating and silicone combination. This product line is ideal for certain uses within the graphics and medical markets.

PRIMELINER® Direct Coated FilmsDirect silicone coated polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyester (PET), polystyrene (PS), and co-extrusion combination films with either one or two-sided release options. All films are available with a solvent-free or a solvent-based coating. This product line is ideal for use in medical, industrial, label, and composite applications.

FILM PLUS® Poly-coated FilmsPolyolefin extruded onto two sides of a film substrate. A typical construction would have polyolefin extruded onto two sides of a PET film, then silicone coated onto one or both sides. Alternate base films can be used to meet application specific needs. These liners are ideal for certain uses within medical, industrial and tape applications.
