The speciality portfolio would include specialised films for PS self-adhesive labelling as well as direct thermal printable top-coated films and universal printable synthetic paper for labelling applications.

The products include:

Universal printable coated BOPP label Facestock films, which go in for label facestock applications are available in transparent, white and metalised varieties (both coated and uncoated options). The films are compatible with UV, water based and solvent based ink systems and deliver spectacular print performance across wide variety of printing processes which include flexography, gravure, letterpress, offset, screen, thermal transfer and HP Indigo digital. The films also offer high stiffness for conversion and dispensing.

Label over lamination films include gloss and matte, velvet film, scuff free matte film, and black velvet films.

The company offers both transparent gloss and matte films for over laminating PS labels for print protection.

Engineered on a special matte base, velvet film is used for over lamination of labels. This film offers rich velvet finish to the printed labels.

Scuff-free matte over lamination film for labels provides excellent scuff/ scratch resistance which could develop during transportation and handling of the pack.

The recently launched black velvet film offers an intense black colour along with a velvet touch to the package, thereby enhancing overall aesthetics.

Cosmo Films recently launched top coated direct thermal printable film which goes in for all information, track & trace labelling applications. The product is water and solvent resistant, has matte paper like appearance and can endure temperature range of minus 20 to 70 degrees. The product is available in 60/75/87/100 microns. A high temperature variety which can endure temperatures of minus 20 to 130 degrees has also been launched.  This variety is mainly used for carcass tagging and deep freeze labelling. Economic non-top coated variety is also available.

On the other hand, universal printable synthetic paper is a white opaque polypropylene-based film which resembles paper in appearance. The film is printable with most available printing technologies which include wet and UV offset, wet and UV flexo, letterpress, screen, thermal transfer and most of the digital toner technologies. It is a replacement of paper in applications where durability and longevity is desired. It is non-tearable, has moisture and chemical resistance and excellent lay flatness. The versatility of synthetic paper is reflected in the vast number of applications where it can be used which includes labeling in retail environment, outdoors as well. The product is available both in sheet and rolls format from 75 to 430 microns.
