Why Choose Art Paper
Custom Art Paper Packaging | Premium Coated Paper for Luxury Packaging and Wrap Applications
Art paper is premium coated paper produced with a high-quality clay coating on one or both surfaces, providing the most refined printing substrate for offset lithography and digital printing applications requiring photographic image quality, fine typography, and the highest color accuracy available in paper printing. Art paper is the standard substrate for luxury packaging wrap applications, high-end brochures, premium catalog production, and any printed application where the paper's surface quality directly influences the perceived quality of the printed work.
Art Paper Grades and Weights
Art paper is produced in weights ranging from 80gsm to 400gsm. Lightweight art paper (80-130gsm) is used for brochure and catalog printing, insert printing inside packaging, and lightweight wrap applications. Medium-weight art paper (150-200gsm) is used for packaging wrap, high-end catalog covers, and premium promotional materials. Heavyweight art paper (250-400gsm) approaches light cardstock thickness and is used for packaging wrap on rigid boxes, premium postcards, and high-end promotional card applications.
Art Paper vs. Standard Coated Board
Art paper achieves higher print quality than standard coated packaging board because it is produced with more refined clay coating formulations, more consistent base paper quality, and more precise calendering (surface smoothing) processes. The resulting surface has higher smoothness, better ink holdout, and more consistent dot reproduction than standard coated packaging board. For packaging applications where photographic image quality and color precision are the primary print quality requirements, art paper wrap over rigid board construction is the appropriate specification.
Art Paper as Luxury Packaging Wrap Standard
Art paper in 157gsm to 250gsm weights is the standard wrap material for premium litho-wrapped rigid boxes -- printed offset on high-quality art paper stock, then laminated to greyboard rigid box components to create premium rigid boxes with near-photographic exterior print quality. The art paper's refined clay coating accepts CMYK inks at the highest quality level available in commercial offset printing, enabling product photography, brand graphics, and typography to be reproduced at quality levels that communicate luxury investment on the finished box exterior.
Art Paper Print Quality Characteristics
Art paper's clay coating achieves higher print quality than standard coated packaging board through several mechanisms. The coating's higher smoothness (lower Sheffield smoothness values) creates more uniform ink contact across the entire printing surface. The clay coating's higher porosity control maintains ink at the surface with better holdout than standard coatings, producing richer ink density and more consistent dot reproduction. The result is printed color that appears more vivid, images that appear sharper, and typography that appears crisper than equivalent printing on standard coated board at the same ink density and press settings.
Art Paper and Premium Finishing Compatibility
Art paper's refined surface is the ideal base for all premium packaging finishing treatments. Gloss and matte BOPP lamination achieve the most consistent optical quality on art paper's uniform surface. Soft-touch lamination achieves the most uniform velvet texture on art paper's consistent base. Hot foil stamping achieves the crispest edge definition on art paper's smooth clay surface. UV coating achieves the highest gloss levels on art paper's sealed surface. For packaging programs combining premium printing with premium finishing, art paper is the substrate that enables both to perform at their individual quality maximums simultaneously.

Art Paper Packaging in Wyoming — FAQs
What is art paper?
Art paper is premium coated paper produced with high-quality clay coating on one or both surfaces, providing the most refined printing substrate for offset lithography and digital printing applications requiring photographic image quality. It is the standard substrate for luxury packaging wrap applications and high-end printed materials.
What art paper weight should I specify for rigid box wrap?
157gsm to 200gsm art paper is the standard specification for litho-wrap rigid box applications. 157gsm provides adequate weight for smooth wrap adhesion on standard rigid boxes. 200gsm provides a slightly heavier feel that communicates premium investment on the box exterior. Lighter weights (80-128gsm) are appropriate for brochure and insert applications; heavier weights (250-300gsm) for packaging components requiring more structural presence.
What is litho wrap on a rigid box?
Litho wrap is a rigid box finishing technique where the exterior of the box is covered with high-quality art paper printed by offset lithography. The art paper is printed flat before lamination to the box components, allowing offset printing quality to be achieved on what becomes the rigid box exterior. Litho-wrapped rigid boxes achieve the highest print quality available on rigid box packaging.
Is art paper recyclable?
Yes. Clay-coated art paper is accepted in standard curbside paper recycling streams. Art paper with PE lamination may be less compatible with some recycling streams; aqueous-coated art paper is universally recyclable. FSC-certified art paper documents responsible fiber sourcing for brands making sustainability claims.
