Protective films – when scratches, dust, and moisture are out of the question
Surfaces are delicate. Whether metal, glass, plastic, or wood—mechanical damage, dust, and moisture leave marks that cannot always be reversed.
Schlichter supplies protective films that reliably protect surfaces—from production through transport to installation. They peel off without leaving residue, are dimensionally stable, and can withstand heavy loads.

Protection Features in Detail
Protective films serve multiple purposes at once. The choice of material depends on the surface to be protected, the stresses encountered during transport, and the requirements for removal.
Mechanical protection
Scratch protection: Delicate surfaces—such as glass, metal, painted surfaces, and polished plastic—remain undamaged during transport and storage.
Impact and pressure protection: The film absorbs minor mechanical impacts and protects against pressure marks.
Dirt and dust protection: Surfaces remain clean until final assembly or delivery. No additional cleaning is required.
Moisture protection
Condensation and humidity: Sensitive materials are protected from moisture. This is particularly important during long storage periods or when transporting goods through areas with varying climates.
Corrosion protection: The film's moisture barrier protects metal surfaces from tarnishing.

Applications and Solutions
Schlichter protective films are used in a wide range of applications.
Contact usMetalworking & Mechanical Engineering
Sheets, profiles, machine parts, and semi-finished products are protected with protective film to prevent damage during transport and storage. Surfaces arrive at the processing facility in pristine condition.
Glass & Window Construction
Glass panes, window units, and facade elements are particularly susceptible to scratches. Protective films remain on the product until installation and are then removed without leaving any residue.
Plastic Parts & Molded Parts
Injection-molded parts, plastic sheets, and molded components from the production line are covered with protective film immediately after manufacturing—protection from the very first moment.
Electrical Appliances & Household Appliances
Displays, housing surfaces, and glass fronts remain protected until the product is handed over to the end customer. The full quality of the product becomes apparent only when it is unpacked.
Tablets & Capsules
Blister packs for oral dosage forms usefilms the transparent cover film.
Adequate barrier properties while ensuring that the product information remains legible.
Powders & APIs
Highly potent substances and active pharmaceutical ingredients in powder form require multiple layers of packaging.
Shrink wrap is used as secondary packaging and tamper-evident protection for primary containers.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About Screen Protectors
No. High-quality protective films are designed to be removed without leaving any residue—even after being left on for extended periods.
Protective films are suitable for metal, glass, plastic, painted surfaces, and many other substrates. The choice of material depends on the specific substrate and the expected stresses.
That depends on the material used and the storage conditions. If you have questions about the specific service life, we’ll be happy to provide personalized advice.
