Description
Kallima® C1S Blanks are fully bleached coated cover paperboard with a double coating on the topside and are available in 15pt. and 18pt. (381 to 457 microns). Its true low-density construction means a significant basis weight advantage over competing C1S Blanks and ultimately lower costs.
Kallima® C1S Blanks are designed for graphic and small volume folding carton applications where high quality offset litho printing and superior smothness, as well as folding carton characteristics, are required. This grade is suitable for embossing, hot stamping, creasing and folding applications.
End Use
Kallima® C1S Blanks are ideal for applications such as brochures, folders, invitations, gift tags, production/instruction manuals, game cards, recipe cards, menus, lottery tickets, book covers and luxury packaging.
Note: this product is not suitable for litholamination applications.
