4.1 Kallima® Advantages
     
4.1.1   Low Density
    Lower basis weights mean less weight for a given number of sheets.
   
4.1.2   Backside Printability at No Additional Cost
    High bulk to weight fibers allows the Tembec Paperboard Group to add coating to the backside while maintaining the same caliper and low density basis weight.
   
4.1.3   Backside Coating Uses 50% Less Ink Compared to C1S (private lab study)
    Thinner ink film to achieve the same density. Ink savings, ink dries faster, quicker turnaround of jobs, higher production.
   
4.1.4   Backside Coating “Seals” Backside - Less Curl (private lab study)
    An uncoated backside of a competitive C1S sheet leaves the sheet open to changes in rh due to the exposed fiber. We tested C1S sheets against our Kallima® C1S Plus at a private laboratory. Sheets were cut into squares and put in rh chambers with 10 to 80% relative humidity. The C1S paper was more reactive to changes in rh than the Kallima® C1S Plus which exhibited less curl.
   
4.1.5   FSC
   

In purchasing Kallima® products, you can further demonstrate your commitment to the environment and the future of the planet for generations to come. Tembec is working in partnership with the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) to do its part for responsible forest management. The Forest Stewardship Council is an international non-profit organization that defines rigorous standards for the management of the world's forest. The standards help ensure that our forests are managed in an environmentally appropriate way, and in a manner that provides economic and social value to the local community.

Forest certification is one way that Tembec demonstrates a real commitment to the environment. The certification is voluntary and done by an independent organization accredited by the Forest Stewardship Council. When you see the FSC certification mark on a Kallima® product, it’s your assurance that the paperboard that you use comes from a well-managed forest; protecting clean water, wildlife habitat and recreation.
