The company’s other release liner portfolio includes Exhere, PointSil and GlazeSil families of clay-coated kraft, densified, poly-coated, supercalendered and hygiene kraft release liner papers.
Pixelle provides different release liner papers with calipers ranging from 1.7mil to 10mil. All release liner papers are produced in the US.

“With this new offering, Pixelle brings together the right balance of sustainability, consistency, functionality and efficiency in demanding environments, including industry-leading customer service and technical expertise that are second to none.”
