What is silicone-coated film?
Silicone-coated film, also known as coated film, silicone-coated liner, or protective film, is a plastic material (PET, PP, PE) that has been coated with silicone on one or both sides. This gives it release properties—it does not stick to adhesive layers, while also protecting them from dust, moisture, and accidental displacement.
Types of silicone-coated film available from Dolpap
Dolpap offers a wide range of technical silicone-coated films that vary in base material, color, thickness, and adhesive strength.
Types of film:
- PET (polyethylene terephthalate) – highly stable, resistant to stretching and high temperatures.
- PP (polypropylene) – flexible, lightweight, cost-effective, ideal for labels and tapes.
- PE (polyethylene) – soft and resistant to mechanical damage.
Colors:
- transparent (often used as a protective film or clear film),
- white,
- red,
- blue,
- black and white,
- black.
Thicknesses:
- from 8 µm to 100 µm – most commonly used: 12, 23, 36, 50, 75 µm.
Type of silicone coating:
- one-sided,
- double-sided,
- with varying release rates (easy release, controlled release).
Technical Specifications and Packaging Options
Dolpap silicone-coated films are available in various sizes and can be customized for specific applications:
- Width: from 30 mm to 1,600 mm,

Applications of Silicone-Coated Film
Its resistance to high temperatures and anti-adhesive properties make silicone-coated film suitable for use as a backing for foil labels, a release material, or a protective layer in many industries:
The Labeling and Packaging Industry
- film used as a liner in self-adhesive labels and adhesive-backed products,
- Dimensional stability that facilitates the application of labels in automated systems.
Production of Adhesive Tapes
- protective film for industrial, insulating, and assembly tapes,
- High mechanical strength and easy removal.
Composites and Laminates
- separacja warstw żywic w produkcji laminatów technicznych,
- zachowanie kształtu i odporność na temperaturę.
The Construction Industry
- protection and separation of installation, bonded, and waterproofing layers,
- Used with roofing membranes and thermal insulation.
Electronics and Automotive
- protection of delicate electronic components,
- Separation and transport of assembly components.
Heat-resistant film —where is it used?
Silicone-coated films exhibit very good resistance to both low and high temperatures. This is important in processes such as:
- hot lamination,
- thermal forming,
- drying,
- transport and storage of products under varying conditions.
The PET films offered by Dolpap are characterized by dimensional stability even at high temperatures, making them an ideal material for industries that require a high degree of precision.
Transparent Films – Why Choose Them?
Transparent films are a popular choice, especially in applications where visibility of the component, identification of codes or prints, or visual properties are important. Dolpap offers transparent silicone-coated films in various thicknesses and with different types of silicone coating—ideal as a protective film for products that are sensitive to dirt or weather conditions.
