Why Does C1S (Coated One Side) Paper Need Lamination?

2025-08-27

C1S paper (Coated One Side) is a type of paperboard with a smooth, coated surface on one side and an uncoated, rough surface on the other. It is commonly used in packaging, such as paper boxes, tags, and labels. In most cases, lamination is required for C1S paper, and here’s why:

Laminate 1

 

1. Surface Protection

Since only one side of C1S is coated, the printed surface is more vulnerable to scratches, dirt, and moisture. Lamination (gloss, matte, or soft touch film) creates a protective barrier that preserves the printed design.

2. Prevents Ink Absorption

The uncoated fibers of C1S paper tend to absorb ink unevenly, which may cause smudging or dull colors. Applying lamination improves ink stability and maintains a clean, vibrant finish.

3. Enhances Appearance

Lamination gives the printed box or label a premium look, whether with high gloss for brightness or matte for an elegant texture. It also allows for special effects such as spot UV or foil stamping.

4. Improves Durability

Packaging made of C1S without lamination can bend, tear, or fade more easily. Lamination strengthens the surface, making the product more resistant to handling and transportation damage.

5. Customer Perception

A laminated finish makes packaging look more professional and high-quality, which directly increases brand value and customer appeal.

 

Conclusion:
C1S paper must be laminated to ensure protection, durability, and visual appeal. Without lamination, the packaging may lose its print quality and professional look, making it less effective for branding and product protection.
