Remake

硬派皮革再生紙

日漸異常的氣候令社會大眾的環保意識逐漸抬頭，在公司企業的選紙上也逐漸開始挑選一些相對環保的紙張，在各類的印刷品中傳遞友善環境的形象，也能善加利用這些再生紙因使用不同回收素材而產生的特殊質感。本次介紹來自義大利紙廠「FAVINI」推出的一款革命性的無塗㳍再生紙「Remake」的樣本「UP-CYCLING」，以25%的回收橡料、皮革殘留物與木樹漿製成，在紙張表面上會有明顯的各種殘留物顆粒，以及樸質的觸感，在以書本的形式攤開時，聞到皮革的味道是相當有趣的感覺。樣本的燙金範例可以推測，即便是25%回收再生原料，運用在紙上的效果也是相當不錯，細看並沒有細部脫落等不良現象。與其他接近皮革類型所生產的紙不同之處，「REMAKE」擁有類似牛皮紙的質地，但表面相當的平整流順，仔細在表面觸摸也沒有粉屑類的東西掉落，在面對大量的四色平版印刷上可以安心使用。

不過，跟牛皮類型的紙有類似通病的問題是，印刷彩色的圖像多少都會有吸墨造成的暗沈現象，這也是這一類紙很大的特性，運用在合適的題材上會有非常加分的效果。（例：工業風等）若在後加工上（燙金、凸版印刷）則汎用度相當高，作為卡片或者包裝使用也有相當精良的效果。最後這張樣本照片中的圖解釋了「REMAKE」的回收原物料，以及在回收的過程中這些原料是如何被使用的，從廢棄的輪胎、舊的橡料鞋底、製作皮包的邊角屑料等等，經過粉碎後進入抄紙機進行再生抄造。特別值得一提的是，這張使用回收原料的「REMAKE」本身擁有FSC永續林業的認證以外，在製造過程中也使用了再生電力，最後紙張即使廢棄，經過處理後可以100%回收與堆肥，在原料與使用後都非常符合環境保育的概念，在我們選擇紙張時也多了一個愛護環境的選擇。

From Leather to Paper

The rise of public environmental awareness due to the increasingly dramatic climate change has influenced the paper selection of companies who wish to convey better business image by using eco-friendly papers such as recycled papers. Using these papers for printed matters not only can convey a friendly business image but also can cleverly present different unique textures made of different recycled materials.Italian paper producer FAVINI has launched a paper sample UP-CYCLING made of their innovative non-coating leather recycled paper series Remake. The paper series is produced using 25% recycled rubber, leather residues, and wood tree pulp, leaving a rough texture and obvious particles of various residues on the paper surface. It is very interesting to smell the scent of leather when opening a book printed with Remake.

The hot-foil stamp on the paper sample indicates that even with 25% of recycled raw materials the effect on paper is still very nice. There isn’t any sign of the foil coming off the paper surface, or any other undesirable flaws.The significant difference between Remake and other leather papers is the smooth kraft-like texture. The residues are visible on the surface, yet the texture is still amazingly soft with a velvety feel, leaving no trace of fallen dust when touching, and allowing CMYK printing.

Sharing the same common issue of other kraft papers, Remake tends to present a dull colour when printing colourful images due to ink absorption. Though it is a unique characteristic of this type of papers, and it is perfect for appropriate themes such as industrial theme. The remake is widely used for post-processing such as hot foil stamping and letterpress printing and is perfectly suited to luxury printing and packaging.

The sample photo well explains the recycled raw materials used for Remake, and the usage of these materials during the recycling process: discarded objects such as abandoned tires, old rubber soles, scraps of leather… etc., are all crushed and proceeded with paper machines for papermaking.

Besides being approved by FSC(Forest Stewardship Council), Remake is also produced using renewable electricity. The papers are 100% recyclable and compostable, making Remake a highly eco-friendly paper series.
