Overview
Clay Coated Newsback (CCNB) is made from recycled paper pulp and features a kaolin clay coating on the front for a smooth printing surface. The back has a brown or grey kraft uncoated finish with a rough texture. The bleached front side prevents ink absorption, ensuring precise, crisp lines and details when printing. The backside is food-safe, making it ideal for food packaging. CCNB is also popular in the apparel industry for shoe packaging. It can be customized through cutting, hot-foil stamping, and laminating to meet various product and brand needs. CCNB is an affordable packaging option with a high recycled content, making it eco-friendly. For an even more sustainable choice, consider Fully Recycled Clay Coated Newsback.
