Ahlstrom's LabelPack (trademark packaging) department has recently developed a new type of high-quality three-layer coated paper specifically for the self-adhesive label market.
This coating material, named Extrachrome X3, has excellent gloss and good whiteness, and it is easy to print on its surface. This material is ideal for products that require high-grade post-printing trademarks such as wines, spirits, perfumes, cosmetics, delicate foods, and personalized products.
This Extrachrome X3 material is also very robust, guaranteeing no problems during the die cutting and stripping of the press and the double-sided labeling of the fast printing device.
This material can be used for offset, flexographic and letterpress printing, and can be used for UV coating, which is currently produced by the company's Kauttua manufacturing facility in Finland.
Ahlstrom's trademark packaging division manufactures special papers for the flexo packaging industry, self-adhesive industry, and wet adhesive labels.
