The coated and laminated paper industry is generally characterized by small firms that have sought to stake out dominant shares in niche markets.
The industry is more fragmented than most other paper industries, with a number of small players competing either in highly specialized product niches or regions.
It makes the raw materials used to make specialized packages, such as those used for razor blades and other "carded" products, as well as other packaging products.
ANSWER: Paper laminated with more paper, or made from paper pulp till the desired thickness is desired and then coated with a wax layer for protection. It is one of the easiest items to recycle.

Very Much Better.
The "paper" NFL coaches hold is the team's playsheet. They're laminated for durability (and so they can be marked or written on with wax pencil or dry-erase marker then wiped clean).
Coated paper is coated with various materials like clay or polymer to enhance its smoothness, brightness, and ink absorption properties. This coating creates a more polished surface that helps with better color reproduction and sharper image quality when printing.
The products produced through the coating and laminating process ranged from specialty papers to wax paper, carbonless, and thermographic business papers.
Yes, laminated paper is generally waterproof because the lamination process involves sealing the paper with a protective layer that repels water.
Paper is laminated by covering it with a thin layer of plastic film. This film is then heated and pressure is applied to bond it securely to the paper, creating a protective coating that makes the paper more durable and resistant to damage. Once cooled, the laminated paper can be trimmed to size if needed.
All plastic is recyclable, but it is not economical to recycle plastic film, as it is often contaminated. So no one will be interested in recycling laminated paper.
When some type of coating is applied to base paper it is called coated paper. Coated paper is not called as fine paper. Fine paper is bleached writing and printing paper. Woodfree paper is the paper made without using mechanically pulped fiber. Woodfree does not mean free of wood fibers. Art paper is typically the paper used for high class multicolor printing. All coated papers can be categorized as fine paper, woodfree or art paper but reverse is not true as all fine paper or woodfree paper or art paper are not coated paper.
