Cosmo Synthetic Paper - A Durable Eco-Friendly Solution

-

  



From population explosion to deforestation, we are traveling to a world full of unimaginable climate changes, diseases, starvation, and pollution. For example, the massive use of paper causing deforestation has increased carbon dioxide concentration and everything that was voiced beforehand. In such wise, as a Global Leader of Flexible Packaging Films, we have engineered Cosmo Synthetic Paper (CSP) to fix up the ecological balance. 

Our Synthetic Paper is a perfect solution for environmental issues such as deforestation for the production of conventional paper and serves as a durable substitute. Cosmo Films believes that merely imposing a ban is not a solution, but finding a relevant replacement is. This eco-friendly replacement of paper is a co-extruded, white opaque, polypropylene-based film that involves zero cutting down of trees.   

Let us now see some of its features  

  1. Made from synthetic resin it does not tear. 
  2. Excellent folding endurance; so even multiple folds won’t tear it off. 
  3. Moisture, oil, and chemical resistance. 
  4. Diverse printing capabilities like conventional offset, UV offset, Water-based Flexo printing, UV Flexo printing, Thermal Transfer, Screen, HP Indigo, Letterpress, UV Inkjet, and select laser print technologies. 
  5. It can be sheeted, die-punched, serrated, stapled, and adhesive bonded. 
  6. Suitable for rubber impressions and hot foil stamping as well. 
  7. Excellent lay flatness.

Derivable Variants of Cosmo Synthetic Paper

Standard Synthetic Paper - The opaque white paper is a both sided polypropylene-based film. It has endured co-extrusion; appropriate for off-set & screen printing. Its applications include tags/labels, banners, outdoor billboards, posters, mark-sheets, visiting cards & similar commercial printing products. 

Top Coated Synthetic Paper - Offering a matte finish, it is also a co-extruded, opaque white synthetic paper. It has propylene-based film coating on one side, best suitable for water/UV flexo, conventional/UV offset, screen, TTR, letterpress, and digital printing (only on select toner technologies). It has an identical application to the standard synthetic paper.

Both-Side Coated Synthetic Paper - As the name says it all, the co-extruded opaque white paper is on both sides coated with polypropylene-based films. It shares the same printing compatibilities and applications as one-side coated synthetic paper. 

High Tear Resistant Both-Side Coated Synthetic Paper (FLEXI) - With the typical paper-look appearance, this co-extruded & white opaque sheet has high tear resistance. And also, it’s compatible with all printing technologies.

Laser Printable (Dry Toner) Both-Side Coated Synthetic Paper - Coated with more white shade film on both sides, this is also co-extruded white opaque synthetic paper. It’s compatible with dry toner printing and printed both sides by HP Indigo, offset, TTR, letterpress, conventional and water & UV flexo processes. 

Applications

From retail packaging to tags & labels, commercial printing, identification, and credentials, CSP has proven its proficiency across various segments. Its popular applications include - 

  • Menu Cards
  • Coasters
  • Calendars
  • Posters
  • Danglers
  • Photo albums
  • Labels/tags
  • Banners
  • Carry Bags
Beyond doubts, it's high time to spotlight the environmental crisis we face today; if not, we might reach a stage when these crises will become unavoidable. At Cosmo Films, our engineers are working day & night to create solutions that serve the industry best and promote sustainability. Cosmo Synthetic Paper is one such innovation that can have a large-scale impact in resolving both deforestation and water wastage during pulp-based paper manufacturing.

The lifeline of the food & beverages industry, flexible packaging is the reason behind the remarkable shelf life & storage ease. From stand-up/lay-down to sealable zip-lock pouches, the various forms of packaging are nothing less than a milestone innovation. This packaging solution, where one side has a recyclable nature, also tremendously reduces the chances of food spoilage. Apart from the unbeatable functional values, it has an equal capability to offer an aesthetic look too packed products. Cosmo Films understand that while competing in a customer-centric market, packaging demands a lot more in the shape of user-friendliness, quality, brand identification, and more. Thus it's not only about the right packaging material but the right printing process.      Scroll down to know about those printing techniques in the next segment of the article.

    From training manuals & IDs for staff to menu cards, coasters & even table mats, a paper has a variety of applications in the hospitality industry. But one of the major challenges in using regular paper here is the intense environment. Water or coffee spills, oily/dirty hands are so common in restaurants, hotels, or takeaways that it becomes impossible for it away from paper materials.

HOW ARE RESTAURANTS USING PAPER? Hotels & restaurants rely on single-use, wood-pulp-based paper for menu cards, coasters & multiple other applications to get rid of damaged ones, replacing them with new copies.But is it wise to do so, especially when deforestation has now become a global concern? They often end up consuming tons of wood-based paper in a day due to its inefficiency against moisture or oil. C
