Description

Kallima® Web Coated Cover C1S Plus is a fully bleached coated paperboard with a double coated topside, which delivers a true low-density construction and unique backside coating. Offered in 8 pt. through 10 pt. (203 to 254 microns), the lower basis weight of Kallima® Web 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® Web Coated Cover C1S Plus has superior ink holdout, resulting in less ink usage and faster drying times. Finally, the 90 GE brightness ensures a cleaner, brighter look. Kallima® Web Coated Cover C1S Plus offers an excellent smoothness and print surface. It is specifically designed for heatset offset 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.
