The item is produced by extruding virgin polypropylene resin into thin, flexible sheets that are later laminated and cut to size. It is commonly supplied as a roll of clear, waterproof film.

When shipping, the film should be wound tightly on wooden pallets and wrapped in moisture‑proof film to prevent humidity absorption; the product is freely exportable from India without a license, and the paperwork must indicate sea‑port clearance at Chennai or Nhava Sheva.
