Benefits

                        UNILUSTRE ™

Unifoil is extremely excited to propose our non-laminated UNILUSTRE ™ metallized board process, which provides many benefits over film laminations of any type.

Here are some of the benefits of UNILUSTRE™:

•  Eye Catching Brilliance- no film layer to see through, only the first generation embossing.

•  Glueability- non-laminated, porosity allows adhesive to pull fiber, tamper   evident.

•  Source Reduction- no film on package, Unifoil reuses the film.

•  Gauge & Weight Efficiency- the absence of film virtually eliminates the film weight, allows for better yields for your printers, also shipping cost should be reduced.

•  Excellent Dead Fold- metallized board scores, folds and embosses better than film, without the tendency to curl or metal particles to flake off.

•  Non-Laminated- paperboard is balanced and eliminates the possibility of delamination.

•  Recyclable & Repulpable- vapor deposition of aluminum is practically insignificant (see attached chart).

•  Reduction of Ink- Stripe metallization eliminates most of the white ink, which is sometimes double bumped for coverage.

•  Curl Free- Non-Laminated, balanced sheet. Unifoil's process does not utilize heat or re-moisturizing, which affects the original fiber structure and relative humidity of the paperboard material that causes imbalance (curl).

Cost- Lower cost alternative to Hot-Stamping , and increased printing speeds compared to foil or film laminates.
