Corrugated Litho Lamination

Greif offers litho lamination services in North America. Litho lamination is a process that combines a high-quality printed top sheet with a corrugated base, preventing score cracking and providing a superior printed package. The process involves the wet end, where the inside liner meets the medium to create a single face. This single face is then bonded with adhesive to create a single flat board, which is shipped to customers who can die-cut it into the shape of a box. By using Core Choice’s litho lamination services, customers can eliminate the laminating process and focus on die cutting, making their production more efficient.

A litho laminated box is ideal for various industries, including food, retail, cosmetics, and consumer products. It is also commonly used for displays in stores. Core Choice’s litho lamination allows for superior corrugated graphics and precise registration. They use high-quality graphics for corrugated folding cartons and flute packaging, using a wide range of substrates and print methods, such as offset and digital printing.

They offer a full complement of print options, including up to eight print colors, digital and flexo cut-to-mark, inside cut-to-mark pre-print, and functional and decorative options like barrier coatings, decorative coatings, and reinforcement tapes. The minimum size for lamination is 24 in x 24 in, with a maximum width of 64 in for single-wall sheets and 54 in for double-wall sheets. The maximum length is 80 in, and they can laminate sheets ranging from 10o to 24 Point, coated on one side. The minimum order quantity is 3000 sheets for single wall and 2500 sheets for double wall. By providing customers with a litho top sheet, Core Choice enables them to have a faster die-cutting process.
