Invercote T is designed for cigarette packaging and manufactured without the addition of fluorescent whitening agent, FWA. Whiteness is achieved only through the coating and the pure white fibre in the baseboard. The printing side is fully coated and finished to a matt level. The smooth surface of Invercote T is essential for demanding full- and half tone printing. The smoothness and uniform ink absorption characteristics are of paramount importance. Solvent retention after gravure printing is particularly low, allowing for shorter storage time after printing.
Thanks to its composition of multiple layers of solid bleached primary fibres, Invercote T has a superior strength and toughness compared to board grades containing mechanical or recycled fibres or single ply bleached primary fibre board. This gives several advantages in designing and processing cartons, in packaging operations and in the use of the package itself. Invercote T has been developed specifically for crush cut rotary die-cutting. A printed Invercote T hinge lid blank meets the exacting requirements of high speed cigarette packers. Controlled manufacturing conditions and the documented consistency gives a high runnability.
Invercote T has excellent creasing and embossing properties allowing deep and narrow creases and defined multilevel embossings. The high quality embossing is also possible when performed together with hot foil stamping. The board has a Crease Recovery Resistance (CRR) adapted to the demands from the tobacco industry, allowing high speed in the packaging lines and providing excellent box geometry. This makes Invercote T ideal for bevel edge- and round corner boxes.
