Karess® Film

AN EXCEPTIONALLY SOFT FILM SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR WET LAMINATION. 

Karess® Film is an unsupported soft-touch film specifically designed for use with wet lamination systems. Its premium rose-petal feel creates a memorable haptic experience for customers, making it ideal for luxury products and brands that need their prime labels, sachets, stand-up pouches, and more to stand out on the shelf.

Because Karess Film has no adhesive layer, it is compatible with lamination systems that use wet adhesives and UV/LED curing technology. Made of 70-gauge biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP), this film is able to accept a broad range of embellishments and value-add effects, including die cutting, spot varnish, and foil stamping.

Karess Film is an unsupported film designed to complement lamination systems using wet adhesives and UV/LED curing technology to produce prime labels or flexible packaging.

For general commercial print applications, see our Karess® Laminate, which includes a thermally activated EVA adhesive layer for use with heated nip rollers. 

Karess is part of the Nobelus® Tactile Collection.
