Sustainable Innovations. At Your Service. Sierra White™ Sierra White™ is as much a physical descriptor as it is a testament to our new paper stock’s ability to perform in the most trying of label environments. Like the Sierra Nevada mountains following a harsh winter storm, our new bright white paper stock maintains its pristine look even after exposure to cold boxes and ice buckets. Better opacity and temperature resistance. Greater embossing depth, consistency and retention with a premium quality look and feel. The paper stock is manufactured with renewal energy and environmental in mind. REQUEST A SAMPLE GTREE™ Sustainability seems to be on every winemaker’s mind these days. But it also presents in our GTREE™ labels. GTREE™ is an environmentally sustainable 100% PCW high-performance wet-strength wine label stock. GTREE™ contains true recycled fiber and has one of the greenest environmental footprints of any label stock available. It is specifically designed for increased resistance to water absorption, which enables GTREE™ to maintain its premium appearance even when exposed to ice bucket conditions for prolonged periods. That means no wrinkling, no peeling from the edges, and no greying out. Naturally, GTREE™ is available in a range of different adhesives, weights and surface textures. Consider combining GTREE paper with EarthCoating® technology for the ultimate in appearance and plastics reduction. EarthCoating + GTREE™ When printing your label, another environmentally friendly option to consider is our GTREE™ 100% PCW high-performance wet-strength wine label stock made with EarthCoating® . This breakthrough mineralization and plastic reduction technology allows for superior whiteness retention and ice bucket performance. Plus, it’s a very cost-friendly alternative to welded label products. G INK™ Every vintner wants their wine label to visually stand out on the shelf. G INK offers a wide range of color options that opens up new creative opportunities to do just that. With a high-quality look and feel, and consistent technical performance on coated and uncoated paper stocks, G INK also impresses when printed on laminates and in combination with other design techniques such as foil stamping and embossing. Current Technology: G INK™ Reflection – A cost effective and environmentally-friendly alternative to hot foiling. This eye-catching ink portrays a premium-quality on label designs-like foil stamping, but at a reduced cost.
