The formation and smoothness of AvantForte allow for outstanding print quality. The patent pending Tri-PlyTM technology guarantees excellent bending stiffness, which reduces printing defects such as washboarding. The extremely smooth surface also results in less ink consumption for exceptional visual appearance. Due to AvantForte’s excellent printing surface, brand positioning and differentiation via packaging becomes remarkably easy.
Because of its outstanding visual appearance and strength, AvantForte can be utilized for a multitude of brand communication needs, such as shelf and mailbox ready solutions and harvest-to-display product supply chain.
Single and two-ply kraftliners’ top and bottom plies are typically made of chemical pulp and include some recycled fibres. AvantForte is different: it is a unique kraftliner produced from 3 layers, and they are all enforced using only 100% virgin fibers.
This advanced Tri-Ply™ technology guarantees superior compression strength, bending stiffness and humidity performance. The innovative 3-layer structure can also mitigate strength losses. It makes AvantForte 10% stronger than other existing standard kraftliners, which will allow you to use less material per each package.
The new AvantForte premium kraftliner is available in two different, but equally stylish colors: brown and white top. AvantForte Brown is ideal for natural and eco-friendly brand communication, whereas the Optical Brightener Additives (OBA) free AvantForte WhiteTop is well suited for a more premium visual appearance.
Both color variations offer an extremely smooth and elegant surface which allows for easy customization and high quality printing, thus granting an altogether premium visual appearance for all your packaging. With AvantForte, quality is always guaranteed, so you can choose whichever color best suits your brand’s look and needs.
