FiberMark Cover Material Has Look of Luxury
- Published: July 14, 2015
WEST SPRINGFIELD, MA | FiberMark offers LaCrema cover material said to feature a luxurious, creamy, rich finish combining the look of genuine leather and the cushiony feel of competitive polyurethane products.
Company says this FSC certified material has a very soft thermo-reactive surface that provides excellent decoration through burnishing.
After announcing reduced pricing, company also offers a new service platform for LaCrema. Because material is made in the US, quantities between 40 and 250 yds in 55-in. rolls ship the next day if ordered by 3:00 PM EST.
Offering the same processing efficiencies as a saturated cover material, converters reportedly will find it easier to wrap a box, glue the material, and run it through binding equipment. Other attributes are said to include:
• Color consistency run to run
• Custom color availability
• Abrasion resistance
• Scuff resistance
• Easy to clean
Originally developed for the publishing market, LaCrema has gained traction in the packaging arena, company says, specifically in the luxury spirits and wine and health and beauty markets.
