High-clarity, high-performance films engineered to meet the demands of the UAE's fast-growing food, retail and industrial packaging industries.
Chaozhou Chao'an Tianhong Packaging Materials Co., Ltd. has been deeply engaged in the plastic film industry since 1990, with over 30 years of experience in the R&D and production of high-performance films (CPP film, PE film, laser film, BOPET film, BOPP film, BOPA film, etc.). Located in Anbu Town, Chaoshan Plain, eastern Guangdong, China, the company is a comprehensive enterprise integrating the R&D, production, and sales of packaging materials. As a leading film supplier, we are committed to providing core solutions for composite packaging substrates to color printing companies worldwide, covering the high-end packaging needs of various industries, including food, hygiene, pharmaceuticals, daily chemicals, and electronics.
With direct export channels to the United Arab Emirates, our films power leading packaging and printing operations in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and across the wider GCC region.
The UAE stands as the Middle East's most dynamic packaging and flexible film market, driven by rapid urbanisation, a thriving F&B sector, and world-class logistics infrastructure that connects global supply chains.
Dubai's Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA) โ one of the world's largest free trade zones โ serves as the primary gateway for Chinese optical and packaging film imports into the Middle East, Africa and South Asia. The emirate's zero-tariff policy on re-export and its deep-water port infrastructure make it the ideal hub for sourcing cost-competitive CPP, PE and BOPET films from China.
The UAE's food & beverage industry is projected to exceed USD 15 billion by 2027. Supermarket chains, e-commerce platforms and food delivery services all require high-performance anti-fog, heat-sealable and barrier films. Transparent CPP and PE films are increasingly specified by UAE packaging converters for fresh produce, dairy, baked goods and fast food applications.
Abu Dhabi's KIZAD (Khalifa Industrial Zone) and Sharjah's industrial areas host a rapidly expanding cluster of flexible packaging manufacturers and gravure printing companies. These firms rely on high-quality composite film substrates โ CPP, BOPET, BOPP and laser films โ sourced predominantly from China to maintain competitive production costs while meeting international quality standards.
The UAE government's commitment to the Paris Agreement and its Net Zero 2050 strategy is accelerating demand for eco-friendly packaging films. Biodegradable substrates, recyclable mono-material laminates and reduced-thickness optical films are gaining traction among UAE brands seeking to meet both regulatory requirements and consumer expectations for sustainable packaging.
The UAE pharmaceutical sector โ valued at over USD 4 billion โ demands the highest standards in barrier and optical packaging films. High-clarity BOPA and BOPET films are widely used for blister pack laminates, pouch packaging and sterile medical device wrapping, where moisture, oxygen and UV barrier properties are critical to product safety and shelf-life compliance.
Dubai South and Abu Dhabi's technology corridors are home to a growing electronics assembly and distribution ecosystem. Anti-static optical films, protective PE films and high-barrier metallised BOPET films play a key role in the protection of electronic components, display panels and photovoltaic modules throughout manufacturing, storage and export operations.
Our 50-acre modern production base is fully equipped with multiple five-layer coextrusion blow molding lines, CPP cast film lines, and wide-format laser lamination equipment. Combined with coating and embossing technologies, our annual production capacity reaches 20,000 tons. Our technical team of nearly 100, including experienced R&D engineers, provides comprehensive support tailored to the specific needs of our clients' industries, including film selection, lamination process optimization, and functional development (such as antistatic and high-barrier properties), ensuring the optimal balance between packaging performance and cost. Our unique laser and embossed films add a touch of vibrant color to laminated packaging.
From five-layer co-extrusion to nano-coating and laser lamination โ our proprietary manufacturing processes deliver films with superior optical clarity, mechanical strength and functional performance for UAE market demands.
From the refrigerated aisles of Carrefour Dubai to the sterile cleanrooms of Abu Dhabi's pharmaceutical plants โ our films are integral to the UAE's most demanding packaging applications.
Anti-fog CPP and PE films are specified by major UAE supermarket chains and fresh-cut vegetable processors in Dubai's DIP industrial zone to ensure crystal-clear product visibility on refrigerated shelves โ a critical purchasing driver in the competitive UAE retail environment.
The rapid expansion of international F&B franchises and local bubble tea concepts across Dubai Mall, Mall of the Emirates and hundreds of UAE food courts has driven strong demand for transparent PE sealing films compatible with high-speed cup-sealing machines.
UAE-based tissue manufacturers and converters in Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah use printable, double-sided heat-sealable CPP films to produce premium-branded tissue packaging with high-speed automation, meeting both domestic retail and export requirements.
The UAE's USD 20 billion halal food industry demands high-temperature resistant packaging films for retort-sterilised products. Our 121โ cooking PE film is fully compliant with food contact safety requirements, making it ideal for ready meals, meat products and dairy applications destined for UAE and GCC markets.
Dubai's status as a global luxury retail destination creates strong demand for premium packaging aesthetics. Our laser and embossed films deliver eye-catching holographic and metallic finishes for cosmetics, perfume and personal care packaging targeting the UAE's discerning luxury consumer segment.
Abu Dhabi's expanding electronics logistics hub and Dubai South's aviation MRO cluster require anti-static and moisture-barrier optical films for component protection. Our functional PE and BOPET films meet the stringent requirements of ESD-sensitive electronics packaging throughout the UAE supply chain.
The UAE packaging film market is evolving rapidly โ driven by sustainability mandates, digital transformation and the emirate's ambition to become a global manufacturing and trade centre.
UAE's Single Use Plastics ban and the Ministry of Climate Change's sustainability roadmap are compelling converters to transition toward biodegradable PBAT/PLA films, recyclable mono-material PE laminates and reduced-gauge optical films โ areas where Tianhong's R&D pipeline is actively investing.
As UAE food brands expand their export reach across GCC, Africa and Asia, the demand for ultra-high-barrier BOPA and BOPET lamination films is growing โ enabling extended shelf life without refrigeration for processed foods, snacks and condiments.
UAE brands are increasingly embedding QR codes, NFC tags and augmented reality elements into flexible packaging. This demands optically clear, high-surface-energy film substrates compatible with digital printing technologies โ a growing segment of Tianhong's functional film portfolio.
The UAE's luxury goods sector and premium FMCG brands are driving demand for holographic laser films, embossed metallised films and ultra-gloss CPP substrates that elevate on-shelf differentiation โ a key strength of Tianhong's proprietary laser and embossing technologies.
JAFZA's strategic position and the growing China-UAE bilateral trade relationship โ supported by the UAE-China Comprehensive Strategic Partnership โ are enabling faster lead times, bonded warehouse stocking of optical films, and more agile replenishment cycles for UAE packaging converters sourcing from Chinese manufacturers.
UAE packaging lines are investing heavily in high-speed VFFS (vertical form-fill-seal) and HFFS equipment. This requires films with precise thickness tolerance, consistent heat-seal initiation temperatures and excellent machinability โ specifications that Tianhong's CPP and PE film lines are engineered to deliver.
For UAE and GCC partners, this philosophy translates to responsive localised service, flexible MOQs for the regional market, and a dedicated export team with experience navigating UAE import requirements, halal certifications and Emirates Authority for Standardization & Metrology (ESMA) compliance documentation.
