transportation and storage.
Insulation effect: The low thermal conductivity of aluminum foil helps to slow down the melting speed of ice cream and maintain the taste.

3. Food safety and hygiene
Non-toxic and harmless: food-grade aluminum foil meets hygiene standards and can be used directly with food without releasing harmful substances.
Anti-bacterial and anti-mold: The smooth surface of the aluminum foil is less likely to harbor bacteria or microorganisms, ensuring food safety.

4. Environmental protection and sustainability
Recyclable: aluminum foil can be recycled and reused, in line with the modern trend of environmentally friendly packaging.
Alternative to plastic: Compared with traditional plastic packaging, aluminum foil is easier to degrade or recycle, reducing environmental pollution.

5. Aesthetics and Functionality
Printing Adaptability: Aluminum foil can be beautifully printed on the surface, which enhances the appearance of the product and the attractiveness of the brand.
Easy-tear design: It can be combined with easy-open or weakened line design, which is convenient for consumers to consume.

6. Structural stability
Anti-pressure and anti-deformation: Aluminum foil has a certain strength, which can protect the ice cream cone from deformation during transportation and storage.
Compare with traditional materials (e.g., waxed paper or ordinary paper)
Waxed paper is easy to rebound and has poor moisture resistance, while aluminum foil is more durable and has better barrier properties.
Plain paper tends to absorb moisture and soften, while aluminum foil composites (e.g., combined with PE) provide better water and oil resistance.

Application examples
Aluminum Foil Box: used for packaging ice cream, lava chocolate, sauces, etc., combining freshness and convenience.
Aluminum foil laminates: laminated with paper or plastic to enhance mechanical properties, e.g. non-plastic water-based coated aluminum foil.
Aluminum foil is ideal for ice cream packaging because of its barrier properties, safety, environmental friendliness and aesthetics, especially for high-end or long-term freshness products.
