AEGLE Zero, a new uncoated folding boxboard with an uncoated reverse, has been added to the range of packaging materials offered by Kotkamills, Finland, from the company’s BM 2 cartonboard machine in Kotka, Finland.

AEGLE Zero is a special uncoated packaging grade, suitable for food and non-food end-uses, where a natural look is as important as excellent printability and conversion properties. The grade is made from the same strong, virgin Nordic fiber that AEGLE Pro and AEGLE White are made from and offers the same opportunity for creative design. Printability, CD stiffness, and value are all offered by this special new grade.

"The tactile and natural looking surface of AEGLE Zero provides the opportunity for creative packaging design where values of pure, organic quality are implicit in the final product choice. It offers a real opportunity for packaging differentiation and is suitable for a range of printing processes and finishing techniques, such as hot and cold foiling. A natural choice from Kotkamills AEGLE range of folding boxboards," said David Ingham, sales director, Consumer Boards at Kotkamills.

AEGLE Zero is produced in the range of 305 to 615 micron and is available to order now.
