erikoispaperille

Erikoispaperille is a Finnish term that translates to "special paper" or "specialty paper." It refers to a broad category of papers designed for specific applications beyond standard printing or writing uses. These papers are manufactured with unique properties to meet particular demands in terms of texture, weight, durability, color, absorbency, or other characteristics.

Examples of specialty papers include those used for artistic purposes like watercolor or drawing pads, food packaging requiring grease resistance or specific barrier properties, photographic paper with a light-sensitive coating, security paper incorporating watermarks or special threads, and decorative papers for crafting or bookbinding. The production of specialty paper often involves different raw materials, additives, or manufacturing processes compared to commodity paper grades. The precise composition and treatment of the paper determine its suitability for its intended specialized function, often leading to higher costs due to the tailored production methods and smaller volumes.
