Synthetic paper is a material made out of synthetic resin which is made to have properties similar to regular paper.

Synthetic paper is usually made out of either biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) or high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The applications include paper for labels (thus that can bond with ink) and non-label paper. The products can be highly water resistant and flexible and durable and tear resistant.[1]

To the polypropylene resin can be added calcium carbonate.[1]

The market for synthetic paper includes packaged food and beverage consumption and cosmetics industries.[1]
