UPM Raflatac’s new Premium Gloss UVI product, the highest quality premium-gloss paper labelstock for UV ink-jet printing on the market, continues to receive rave reviews from the industry. The latest comes from Domino, which is one of the industry-leading printing press manufacturers UPM Raflatac collaborated with to ensure the product would achieve excellent print quality on their machines.

“We endorse UPM Raflatac’s new Premium Gloss UVI product,” says Dale Rawhoof, Product Manager, Digital Printing, Domino. “Ideal for multicolor labels, their new product reproduces images with an almost photograph-like quality, every time, which is a true innovation for semi-gloss papers on UV ink-jet printers. Domino is proud to have worked closely with UPM Raflatac to help them bring this innovative, superior solution to market.”

“Prior to the launch of Premium Gloss UVI, UV ink-jet press manufacturers indicated that semi-gloss paper was an industry-wide challenge,” says Kirit Naik, PhD, MBA, UPM Raflatac’s R&D Director, Americas. “That is why we worked in parallel with the OEMs so we could solve the challenge and exceed the expectations of the industry. Thank you to our friends at Domino for being such valued resources on this project.”

Performance White Barrier is a new sack paper from BillerudKorsnäs where a coating replaces the plastic film barrier commonly found in paper sacks. The sack paper is on par with traditional alternatives regarding shelf-life expectancy and other performance factors. Some of the main benefits are easy recycling in regular paper streams, a good printing surface for branding and product content display and no need for any changes in the supply chain. Performance White Barrier can replace most slit and perforated plastic films without significant changes in shelf-life performance, and works for a wide variety of sack paper applications including animal feed, building materials, chemical substances, dry food and mineral products. Brand owners get sustainable product packaging, and users get packaging that only consists of paper, making the sacks easy to recycle in the well-established paper recycling process.
