or labels final uses (not wet strength).

Can be used without problems with the main printing systems: printing
suggestions
letterpress, offset, blind embossing, hot foil stamping,
thermography and screen printing. The macro-porous surface
suggests the use of oxidative drying inks. The characteristic
embossings require specific printing pressure settings.

Varnishing and plastic laminating must be assessed in advance. converting


suggestions
The varnish coated with an offset machine is almost fully
absorbed and therefore does not improve gloss or protection.
Screen printing varnishing achieves better results, although it
is often necessary to perform two shots to achieve a distinctly
evident result. The surface roughness typical of embossed
papers may give rise to micro defects with plastic laminating
caused by incomplete adhesion of the film to the substrate.
Good results with major processing operations such as: cutting,
die-cutting, scoring, folding and glueing.
