The new Metalvac G paper, which extends the company’s portfolio of Metalvac products, is a range of high substance papers (from 105 g/m2 to 170g/m2).
Additionally, the new Metalvac G range allows creation of exclusive packaging, especially for premium look envelopes and gift bags with Metalvac G 105g/m2, and for board lamination for rigid boxes and prestige packaging with Metalvac G 115 – 170 g/m2, Lacta said.
The firm noted that the new paper guarantees the best results in offset, UV offset, flexography and silkscreen printing. It is also suitable for hot-melt and water-based glues.
