While a Mil is one-thousandth of an inch, a Micron is one-millionth of a meter. So how do you handle a Micron to Mil conversion?
Technically, the standard term for microns is “micrometre.” However, in English-speaking countries the term micron is more commonly used.
Since nearly all we sell is measured in Mils, it’s good to have a sense of what we’re talking about when packaging measured in Microns comes up: There are 25 microns in a mil. When you get a request for a quote using microns (most likely in the trash liner arena or other types of HDPE packaging), use this chart for a quick and easy way to convert measurements.

Nice
It is very important to know this chart for me. Thanks for sharing.
The conversion chart was very helpful. Thank you very much
Thank you for the approximation [ 25 microns = 1 mil ] … that’s all you need know, and it’s good enough for most people’s everyday needs.
