Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about Chromolux.

Which Chromolux shades come in 90gsm?

Metallic Copper, Metallic Gold and Metallic Silver. Every shade, including these three, comes in 250gsm, so the lighter weight is limited to those three colours.

Is Chromolux coated on both sides?

No. It is cast coated on one side, giving a smooth, glossy surface, while the base is an uncoated white paperboard. Plan which face carries the design when you specify the job.

What is Chromolux used for?

Book covers and packaging. Tell us the shade, weight, size, quantity and finishing, and EZ Print quotes the job on that specification. An FSC® option is available.
