Silicone release paper is the backbone of pressure sensitive labels, tapes and sealant product industries. Sealant label is closely attached with everyone’s daily lives: from bandage paper to postal stamp we use it on frequent basis. Silicone release papers helps in keeping adhesives tacky. Majority of the silicone release papers are single side coated (S1S). Normal paper can’t be used as the release paper because it can’t hold the adhesive properly in right state and can’t peel off easily as compared to silicone release paper. Silicone release paper holds adhesives without fusing.
