The new favorite package - art paper
With the development of the packaging and printing industry, the demand for specialty papers in the domestic market is increasing. Specialty paper has become one of the most important products in paper products. Its variety has become more and more numerous, and the scope of application has also been expanding. In order to give the readers a slight understanding of this species, we hereby invite Xie Mao, a specialist in specialty papers, to write an article introducing the characteristics of some specialty papers and their relationship with printing design.
Since the invention of papermaking, paper has been used as a material with cultural properties. Its scope of application has been continuously expanding, and it has also been given more connotations. As for the classification of papers, the art papers (also known as fancy papers and specialty papers) mentioned here mainly refer to cultures and packaging papers that are different from ordinary printing papers, such as coated paper, offset paper and newsprint. This type of paper usually requires special paper processing equipment and processes. The processed paper is rich in color and unique lines. Art paper can be applied to exquisite book covers, albums, brochures, invitations, greeting cards, high-end office papers, business cards, and high-grade packaging paper. At present, with the rapid development of the domestic economy, people’s aesthetic requirements are constantly increasing. The demand for displaying images and communicating information through paper is increasing. The art paper industry has also been rapidly developed. Since entering China in the early 1990s, art paper With its unique charm, it attracted many people in the design and printing industry. The use of art paper has also increased dramatically. The number of people engaged in the sale of art paper is also increasing rapidly. Take Singapore's Xiemao Paper Co., Ltd. as an example. It entered China at the end of 1993 and has since grown from a company in the country to a large art paper sales company with four wholly-owned companies and nearly 30 distributors and liaison agencies.
First, the classification of different angles 1. Look from the pulp. The quality of specialty paper pulps is relatively high. Most of them are pure wood pulps with long fibers and some contain cotton. This paper pulp has good strength and toughness after papermaking. The paper has good stiffness and elasticity, and the color is also bright. Pulp of plain paper is provided with a certain proportion of non-wood fibers, and the paper tends to turn yellow and generally needs to be coated.
2, from the dyeing point of view can be divided into pulp dyeing and post-dyeing: Pulp dyeing is to add toner when papermaking into pulp, so that the color is evenly distributed in the paper fiber, the paper is saturated in color evenly, cross-section inside and outside like. After dyeing, after the paper is formed, the pigment is dyed on the surface of the paper with the infiltration method, the color stability is inferior to the pulp dyeing, and the water is prone to discoloration. When the dark paper is folded, white edges are easily formed and the overall effect is destroyed.
3, from the embossing mode can be divided into the front embossing and post-embossing: the former embossing means that in the pulp is not completely dehydrated through a soft blanket, so that the paper fibers in accordance with the natural distribution of the felt to form a special texture of the paper. The pre-embossed paper texture transitions naturally and delicately without damaging the paper fibers. After embossing, the finished paper is passed through an engraved steel roll, which uses mechanical pressure to create a pattern on the paper. The advantages of post-embossing are the simplicity of the process, the relatively low cost, and the ease of use. However, this process damages the paper fibers, so the quality of the base paper directly affects the quality of the finished paper after embossing. The pattern of embossing patterns after the change is less, and the embossed pattern before the comparison is slightly mechanical and rigid.
Second, paper and paper <br> <br>
design and design has a close relationship, there was a famous Japanese books with Zhen family said: paper is the design of life. Let's not forget the accuracy of this sentence, but this sentence does reflect the importance of paper for the design, because paper can be said to be the most basic carrier of the design and the initial manifestation. Every kind of paper has its own unique color, luster, texture and surface texture and texture. These characteristics give each paper a different personality, and specialty papers bring people the difference in gloss and color. Different feelings. When these different personalities are combined with the design, they need the designer's ingenuity to make the individuality of the paper a part of the design and use the paper to convey the design so that the style of the paper and the style of the design are perfectly united, thus revealing the unique artistic atmosphere. .
How to make use of the characteristics of specialty papers to make the design even higher?
1. Fully utilize the emotions and emotions expressed by the texture and texture of the paper, and achieve a simple and beautiful artistic effect through the simple design of finishing touch. (can also achieve the purpose of saving printing fees)
2, using a special process: die cutting, embossing, electro-aluminum stamping, UV glazing, oil and so on. Because specialty paper contains more long fibers, it has good stiffness and toughness and is suitable for die cutting and drumming. Many specialty papers have a rich texture and texture, and can achieve special effects when compared with electro-aluminum, UV glazing, and gloss of oil.
