RFQ Checklist for Laminated Film Rolls
Use this checklist when requesting printed or plain rollstock for automatic packing lines. If a detail is still open, write the target value and note that it needs confirmation.
- material structure, such as PET/AL/PE or BOPP/VMPET/PE
- film width and finished roll width
- total thickness or layer thickness if known
- roll diameter, core size, or roll weight if available
- printing design, artwork status, and number of colors
- print repeat, lane count, eye-mark position, registration or coding area if specified
- unwind direction and copy orientation from the machine or co-packer specification
- product application and shelf-life target
- packing machine type, such as VFFS or HFFS, if known
- trial quantity, repeat-order quantity, or annual estimate
- destination country or buyer-arranged freight note if needed
- sample request, artwork file format, and target lead time
Printed Rollstock Machine and Artwork Inputs
For a printed rollstock project, share the machine make or co-packer specification when available, together with web width, print repeat, lane count, eye-mark position, registration or coding area, unwind direction, copy orientation, core ID, maximum roll diameter or roll-weight limit, and the current drawing, specification, or approved sample.
The equipment supplier or co-packer confirms the machine inputs. Minghua Pack confirms only the quoted manufacturing scope after review; these inputs do not by themselves promise machine compatibility or line performance.
What to Confirm During RFQ Review
Specification Fit
A quotation review should check whether the film structure, thickness, width, and sealing layer fit the product, barrier need, and packing line.
Printing and Converting
Artwork status, color count, repeat length, roll direction, and slitting needs help the factory review production feasibility before quoting.
Commercial Scope
Quantity, sample needs, lead time, and freight preference help separate a trial RFQ from a repeat-order or annual supply discussion.
For example, a powder sachet may need stronger moisture and oxygen barrier than a general dry snack film. A coffee rollstock project may need aroma protection, print control, and roll direction matched to the buyer's machine.
Helpful Internal Links Before You Send the RFQ

Retort Packaging Film
Use this route when the laminated film must be reviewed for high-temperature food or sauce packaging.
Products
Compare laminated film rolls, pouches and bags, and PTP blister foil before sending the RFQ.
Rollstock vs Premade Pouches
If the supply format is still open, compare the filling path before collecting rollstock-specific inputs.

Request a Quote for Laminated Film Rolls
Include the checklist details, sample notes, and artwork status in your RFQ. If your team uses buyer-arranged freight, state the preferred handoff so packing and shipping documents can be confirmed early.
FAQ
What information is needed to quote laminated film rolls?
Send the material structure, width, thickness, roll diameter or roll weight, print design, product application, packing machine type, quantity, destination or freight arrangement, sample request, artwork status, and target lead time.
Can I request a quote if I do not know the material structure?
Yes. Share the packed product, shelf-life target, barrier requirement, storage condition, and machine type. Ask the supplier to recommend or confirm whether structures such as PET/AL/PE, PET/VMPET/PE, BOPP/PE, or NY/PE should be considered.
Why does film width matter for a rollstock quote?
Film width affects slitting, roll yield, packing machine fit, and material cost. If the width is not final, send the target bag size, sealing layout, and machine information so the roll width can be reviewed.
Should I send artwork before quotation?
If artwork is ready, send the file format, print colors, and any layout notes. If it is not ready, request a preliminary quotation based on plain film or the expected color count, then confirm the final scope when artwork is available.
Can freight be arranged by the buyer?
State whether the buyer or supplier is expected to arrange freight. The written quotation should confirm the delivery term, handoff point, packing responsibilities and any forwarder requirements for that project.
