Paper is the main material of product packaging in China. It has good printing effect and can show the patterns, characters and processes we want incisively and vividly on the surface of the paper. There are many kinds of paper. The following are commonly used materials.
1. Coated Paper
Coated paper is divided into single-sided and double-sided. It is mainly refined from high-grade raw materials such as wood and cotton fibers. The thickness is 70-400 grams per square meter. More than 250g is also called coated white cardboard. The paper surface is coated with a layer of white pigment, with white surface and high smoothness. The ink can show a bright bottom after printing, which is suitable for multi-color overprint printing. After printing, the color is bright, the level changes are rich, and the graphics are clear. Commonly used in gift boxes, portable paper bags and some export products packaging and tag. Low gram coated paper is suitable for the printing of gift boxes and adhesive sticker.
2. White Board
There are two kinds of white board, gray and white. Ash bottom whiteboard is often called pink gray or single-sided white. White background is often called single powder card or white cardboard. The texture of the paper is firm and thick, the paper surface is smooth and white, and has good strength, folding resistance and printing suitability. It is suitable for making folding boxes, hardware packaging, sanitary ware boxes, portable paper bags, etc. Because of its low price, it is widely used.
3. Kraft Paper
Kraft paper is commonly used in white and yellow, that is, white kraft paper and yellow kraft paper. The color of kraft paper endows it with rich and colorful connotation and a sense of simplicity. Therefore, as long as a set of colors is printed, it can show its internal charm. Because of its low price and economic advantages, designers like to use kraft paper to design dessert packaging. The packaging style of kraft paper will bring a sense of intimacy.
4. Art Paper
Art paper is what we often call special paper. It has many kinds. Usually, the surface of this kind of paper will have its own color and concave convex texture. Art paper has a special processing technology, which looks high-end and high-grade, so its price is also relatively expensive. Because the surface of the paper has uneven texture, the ink cannot be 100% covered during printing, so it is not suitable for color printing. If the logo is to be printed on the surface, it is recommended to use hot stamping, silk screen printing, etc.
