Seeing Clearly Through BOPP Film

By Dorothy Wallace


At no point in its history, at no point in the relatively short time of its existence, was the human being ever the biggest or the strongest animal on the face of the planet. Every animal of comparable mass is stronger, faster, or more agile. Curiously however, it is not the bigger, stronger animals that dominate the planet, even a rudimentary understanding of the laws of nature would dictate so. It is not the lion that has worn crowns and it is not the gorilla that has built great cities. No, credit for those goes solely to man. Humanity was able to achieve all of it due to a quirk in its evolutionary development. In exchange for the muscular development enjoyed by its cousins within the great ape family, humanity would instead get enhanced cognitive abilities in a tradeoff that no one but an idiot with the thickest of skulls would argue did not end in its favor. Armed with an intellect that the other animals could not match, humans noticed that a pointy rock would make a great weapon and that attaching said pointy rock to a long stick made for an even better one. Over the course of human development, it eventually came to pass that BOPP film came into being.

Bi Oriented Polypropylene. That is what BOPP stands for. In essence, it is a kind of packing film that could be mistaken for regular. It is generally clear and stretchy.

The film is used for packaging. Prepared meals can be sealed with the stuff and then placed in a fridge. Anything collapsible or with any openings can also be packed with the stuff in order to make sure that it retains its shape and to make sure that nothing gets in through any of the holes.

There are a lot things that can be ruined by moisture. Wood, food, clothing. Packing them in the film makes them protected against outside moisture while also protecting from drying out. A corpse can also be packaged in the stuff, really sealing all the decaying flavor.

Using such film when it comes to packing is good judgment. For things that have openings, like vases, it ensures that nothing gets inside. It also holds things together quite well, so whatever is packaged will be able to retain its shape more effectively than things that are packed without it.

When it comes to packing food, this stuff becomes that much more important. Food is meant to be consumed and generally, food is best consumed when it is fresh. But sometimes, eating fresh is just not possible. But using film to package it can make sure that it retains some degree of freshness. This keeps the food appetizing or at least edible.

The material should not cost too much money. In fact, with the right coupons, it could even be free. It is available in most grocery stores and convenience stores as well.

While one of the main selling points of the material is its increased durability, it will not stop a bullet. It can however stretch quite a lot, allowing it some slack before it begins to tear. However, this film was not made to last forever. It was made with the intention that it would eventually have to be ripped off and human hands are more than capable of doing so.

People need to eat and they need their goods. But they cannot always get their goods immediately. As such, it is important to make sure that those goods are secure while being transported.
