CHEEVER SPECIALTY PAPER - GLASSINE
Cheever Specialty Paper & Film's glassine paper is manufactured by supercalendering, which produces a very smooth, acid-free and unbuffered surface that is air and water resistant. It is translucent in nature, although opaque if colored in one of the various colors offered.
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.
Cheever's glassine paper is used in the Pharmaceutical & Medical, Graphic Arts, Labels, and Food & Beverage industries for art paper, protecting artwork, insect collecting, candy box inserts, fireworks wrapping, paperboard tubes in model rocketry, and as a base paper for greaseproof paper, among others. It will not smudge when used for graphite, charcoal or pastel drawings. Glassine paper is also used as an interleaving paper in bookbinding, protecting fine illustrations from contact with the facing pages.
