Synthetic Paper | HARDVOGUE

Introduction to Synthetic paper

Synthetic paper is a type of film made primarily from polypropylene (PP) or high-density polyethylene (HDPE), designed to look and feel like traditional wood-pulp paper but with superior durability, water resistance, and tear strength. It is widely used in labels, tags, maps, menus, posters, and packaging applications where long life and print quality are required.Regular thickness : 75/95/120/130/150mic

Main Characteristics:

•Waterproof & Tear Resistant: Unlike traditional paper, synthetic paper doesn’t absorb water and won’t tear easily.

•Excellent Printability: Compatible with offset, flexo, screen, UV inkjet, and thermal transfer printing.

•Smooth Surface: Offers high opacity, bright whiteness, and excellent color reproduction.

•Durability: Resistant to oil, grease, chemicals, and weathering, ideal for outdoor use.

•Recyclable: Can be recycled along with other PP or PE materials.
