VPF has announced the launch of a new release liner made mostly from recycled paper. NSA700-476 kraft paper liner is comprised of 70% recycled material. The FSC-certified 70 g/qm2 kraft paper reduces the use of virgin fibers; in addition, up to 60% of the energy and up to 70% of the water are saved in production.

Compared to conventional liners, the VPF kraft paper liner thus has a significantly improved carbon footprint, VPF says, and in addition, waste is avoided through the use of recycled paper.

VPF has subjected the Kraftliner NSA700-476 to all the usual tests and proven its long-term aging resistance with all common dispersion acrylic and UV acrylic adhesives from the VPF portfolio.

The material is equipped with a slightly increased release value for paper and film face materials. Also new and sustainable is the film-based, transparent R-PET liner, which VPF offers in a thickness of 30. It has a 70% post-consumer waste content and is coated on one side with easy-release silicone.

Samples of the two new sustainable liners are now available from VPF.
