80g Coated Paper General Standard Label Material — A8ST40

Construction

The three functional layers of this item. Selecting on face stock alone is where most specification errors begin — the adhesive and liner decide how it behaves on your press.

Product features

• Medium-tack adhesive system — balanced adhesion and converting performance
• Coated paper face — excellent print reproduction for fine graphics

FAQ

What substrates is A8ST40 (80g Coated Paper) built for, given it runs a Medium-tack adhesive, and which document states that?

80g Coated Paper is specified for the general standard field, which does not mean every substrate in it. Coated paper takes fine print and varnish well, and it takes up moisture at the cut edge. Where the surface is recycled or carries mould release, treat the first roll as a trial.

What is the minimum application temperature for A8ST40 (80g Coated Paper, Medium-tack) on a 30μm Clear PET liner, and is there a written figure for it?

No application-temperature figure is released for this construction, and we will not invent one. Adhesive wet-out decides the low end, and that depends on your line speed and the temperature of the bottle. The declared test condition is 23±2 °C / 50±5 % RH, and a trial roll shows where your own line sits.

Which standard are the tack and peel values for 80g Coated Paper on 30μm Clear PET reported to, and which document states it?

No tack or peel figure is released for this construction, so we will not quote one. We report tack to FINAT FTM 9 by the ball method and 90° peel to FTM 2, at 23±2 °C / 50±5 % RH.

What quantity does A8ST40 (80g Coated Paper, Medium-tack) start at on a 30μm Clear PET liner, and does a trial roll count, and is export packing included?

Minimum order quantity is 500 ㎡ and lead time is 15 days after artwork and roll-format approval. A trial roll for press approval can be arranged before the production run starts. Shipment is ex-works Guangzhou, and it can be consolidated with other codes on the same order.

Is AR0011 a drop-in alternative to A8ST40 (80g Coated Paper), and which one should we trial first?

A8ST40 runs Medium-tack adhesive on 30μm Clear PET Liner, while AR0011 runs Removable on 62g White Glassine Liner. The difference is the adhesive chemistry, which decides edge lift and high-speed behaviour more than the face does. Compare the two technical tables above, then test both on the same substrate.
