Kallima Coated Cover C1S Plus

Description

Kallima® Coated Cover C1S Plus is fully bleached coated paperboard with a double coated topside featuring a true low-density construction and a unique backside coating. Offered in 8 pt. through 14 pt. (203 to 356 microns), the lower basis weight of Kallima® Coated Cover C1S Plus means less weight for a given number of sheets and ultimately lower costs. Add to that the advantage of a single-coated backside that gives printers an economical alternative to conventional C2S grades which weigh up to 20% more. The backside coating allows printers to take advantage of both sides of the sheet to maximize commercial print projects rendering colors sharper and truer. Kallima® Coated Cover C1S Plus has superior ink holdout, resulting in less ink usage and faster drying times. Finally, the 90 GE brightness and blue white shade ensures a cleaner, brighter look.

Kallima® Coated Cover C1S Plus offers an excellent smoothness and print surface, and is recommended for high quality lithographic, flexographic and rotogravure printing. It is also suitable for embossing, die cutting, creasing and folding applications, foil stamping, UV coating, aqueous coating and film laminations.

Kallima, the one-stop shopping for all of your lightweight’s paperboard needs is proud to say that all of our Coated Cover Collection is FSC certified with 10% recycled content upon request.

End Use

Kallima® Coated Cover C1S Plus is ideal for applications such as annual reports, brochures, magazines, book covers, greeting cards, game cards, calendars, menus, directory covers, and lottery tickets. The 9 pt. sheet meets US Postal Service regulations.
