Measurements in Packaging.
In various industries, ranging from manufacturing to packaging, understanding and being able to convert different units of measurement for material thickness is essential - common units used for this purpose are gauge, micron, and millimeter. Whether you are dealing with polythene films or other materials, having a dependable conversion guide can streamline processes and ensure accuracy in measurements. Converting Measurements Using a Conversion Table: Polyethylene gauge (ga) can be converted to micron (mu) by dividing it by 4, and the thickness in millimeters (mm) can be determined by dividing the micron value by 1000. An example of this would be 50mu equaling 200ga, which is equivalent to 0.05mm. The thickness of your polythene can range from ultra-light (typically between 32-50ga) to super heavy (1000-1200ga), so it is important to make accurate calculations. Our conversion table below states how each measurement converts to another, enabling you to make informed decisions and
