UPM label papers on show at Labelexpo Asia

Tuesday 01. December 2009 - UPM presents its comprehensive range of label face and base papers in Shanghai at the Labelexpo Asia exhibition. UPM offers a variety of options for pressure sensitive and conventional labelling. The paper range includes glassine liners as well as supercalandered and clay coated kraft liners for label base. One side coated, woodfree coated and uncoated papers complete the range for label face.

Excellent quality consistency, optimal surface properties, runnability and
convertibility of the UPM papers give the highest performance throughout
the converting process.

“With UPM´s strong commitment to the self-adhesive label business in Asia,
we are constantly developing our paper products and services for Asian
customers,” says Jaakko Nikkilä, UPM’s Converter segment leader in Asia.

UPM is strongly committed to continuous improvement in economic, social and
environmental performance. The manufacturing processes are continuously
improved to ensure the lowest possible environmental footprint for the high
quality paper.

UPM Forest Life presented at the exhibition

During Labelexpo Asia UPM is highlighting its excellent environmental
performance and sustainable operations by presenting its interactive online
experience “UPM Forest Life” to the Asian exhibition visitors. UPM launched
the www.upmforestlife.com website in Chinese on World Environment Day in
June 2009. At the same time UPM continued the international Plant a Tree
Day events by donating 10,000 trees to the China Green Foundation for the
reforestation of areas adjacent to the Great Wall in Jinshanling, outside
Beijing.

UPM initially launched this creative website in 2007. Since then it has
received a great deal of recognition and several international awards for
its unique content and technology. The Chinese version makes the virtual
walk in the Finnish forest accessible to new audiences in Asia.
