Cosmetics and personal care


Choosing the perfect material for the cosmetics sector is influenced by the requirement for a resistant medium, designed to withstand contact with alcohol, oily substances, and the like, and at the same time, capable of producing the best colour representation.

This calls for a primary focus on plastic materials such as polypropylenes and polyethylenes (which are more flexible than the former) and adding protection to the print, like UV coating or plastic lamination, where the former is insufficient (for example, sun creams).

In some instances, you could opt for eco-friendly papers, however these have a lower level of resistance to stains and to the elements.

High Resistance to Agents

in combination with UV varnish

Plastic materials

FSC Certified

Front

Weight 54 g/m2 and thickness 60 micron. Smooth and gloss surface with excellent printing results using CMYK colour method. High resistance to abrasion and elements when protected with Uv varnish finishing

Adhesive

Acrylic permanent adhesive. Medium initial adhesion, easy application, “remove and stick on” immediately. These characteristics make this material the ideal choice for labelling glass, plastic, metal and paper. This adhesive is approved by ISEGA (direct contact dry and moist, non fatty foodstuffs). Applications over -5° C and service temperature between -40°+120° C

Purpose

Thanks to its moisture and dirt resistance, polypropylene is the ideal solution for different sectors: Food (excellent for oils) • Wine (fridge and ice bucket wine) • Beverage (excellent for beers) • Chemical • Industry The cheap answer to those who are looking for an inexpensive but strong product. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ADD A UV VARNISH PROTECTION.

Front

60 g/m2 polypropylene and 70-micron thickness with glossy silver metallic surface. Possibility of creating surprising effects during printing: • Using an opaque white base will keep the colors of the CMYK range unaltered, effectively neutralising the metallic effect. • If you choose not to use the opaque white, the colors will be influenced by the silver metallic coloring of the support, producing more or less brilliant effects depending on the chosen varnish.

Adhesive

Permanent acrylic adhesive. Medium initial adhesion and ease of application and immediate "removal and repositioning" make this support ideal for labeling on glass, plastic, metal, and paper. ISEGA-approved adhesive (direct contact with dry and moist, non-greasy foods) Application above +5 degrees and operating temperature between -10°C and +80°C.

Purpose

The moisture and stain resistance properties make polypropylene an ideal solution for multiple sectors: Food (excellent for oil) • Winemaking (all types of wine) • Beverage (excellent for beers) • Chemical UV PROTECTIVE VARNISH IS MANDATORY.

FSC Certified

Front

80 g/m2 polyethylene and 85-micron thickness with glossy finish. Smooth surface with excellent results in four-color printing. More flexible compared to the range of polypropylenes.

Adhesive

Permanent acrylic adhesive. Medium initial adhesion and the ease of application and immediate "removal and repositioning" make this support ideal for labeling on glass, plastic, metal, both on flat and curved surfaces. ISEGA-approved adhesive (direct contact with dry and moist, non-greasy foods). Application above -5 degrees and operating temperature between -40°C and +120°C.

Purpose

The resistance and flexibility properties make polyethylene an ideal solution for multiple sectors: Cosmetics • Chemical • Industrial • Home and Personal Care UV PROTECTIVE VARNISH IS ESSENTIAL TO ENSURE RESISTANCE TO ABRASION AND EXTERNAL CORROSIVE AGENTS.

Low resistance to agents

In combination with UV varnish

Paper materials

Front

Coated paper. Weight 90 g/m2. The most used paper among the inexpensive range. Smooth and gloss surface with excellent printing results using CMYK colour method.

Adhesive
