35g/m2 paper

Compared with a standard Gerbier HDS 40g/m², this new 35g/m² grade provides a 12.5% weight reduction enabling a lower environment footprint impact, while maintaining high-performance during lamination, printing and converting.

Main applications include pouches or sachets, for food and non-food end-uses such as sugar, coffee, aromatic herbs or dehydrated products. Gerbier HDS 35g/m² offers the lowest basis weight on the one-side coated papers market for such applications.

Calendering and high-quality coating of Gerbier HDS 35g/m² bring outstanding gloss and high smoothness for superior visual attraction and intact brand image. Suitable for extrusion with PE or lamination with alufoil and PET, the paper delivers high-quality printing results after lamination and behaves perfectly during converting.

Gerbier HDS 35g/m² delivers particularly high results with flexo and helio printing. Lower basis weight also facilitates sealing process and delivers optimum rigidity for trouble-free converting.
