Synthetic paper is a replacement of paper in applications where durability and longevity is desired. It has a matte paper like finish, is non-tearable, has moisture and chemical resistance and good lay flatness. The product is available in 75, 95, 120, 150, 175, 195, 215, 275, 330, 375 and 430 microns.

S. Satish, global head, sales and marketing, Cosmo Films, said: ‘The universal printable synthetic paper has been a long standing unmet need of the market, as currently different synthetic paper grades were being offered for different printing technologies. This universal printable product would help the printers to significantly reduce their inventory carrying costs.’
