Made of biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP), Karess® HE Film is specifically designed for prime labels and flexible packaging. This lower-friction soft-touch finish facilitates lamination on roll-to-roll presses to optimize efficiency. Its satin texture imparts a sense of luxury to support high-end brands and provides customers with a unique tactile experience.
Because Karess HE has no adhesive layer, it is compatible with wet lamination systems that employ UV/LED curing. This specialty film can receive a range of post-laminate embellishments, providing printers with an economical way to highlight premium packaging with various effects. Its low-haze performance ensures printed colors and designs show through with impressive clarity.
Karess HE Film is an unsupported film designed to complement wet 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
