Glassine

Glassine is manufactured within a narrow caliper tolerance and provides very good die-cutting principals. Glassines have a very low absorption tolerance, making them perfect for consistent silicone coating. Glassine offers many advantages in comparisons to other paper carriers, especially for double sided liners within a narrow release differential.

Glassine is a very thin and smooth paper that has great air and water resistant. Unless dyes are added to change its color or to make it opaque, it is translucent in nature. Glassine is manufactured by Supercalendering. This pressing of the paper fibers in the machine direction, produces a super smooth, acid-free and un-buffered surface.
