  • the wrapper has one rougher surface and one smoother surface.
  • the wrapper is arranged so that the smoother surface is arranged facing outwards and the rougher surface is arranged facing inwards so that it is in contact with other elements of the article that are wrapped.
  • a wrapper with a relatively rough surface and a relatively smooth surface has a number of surprising technical benefits.
  • the wrappers of the present invention enjoy the advantage that the manufacturing machinery can run at faster speeds when applying the wrapper to an article compared to the speed when using a conventional paper wrapper or a foil wrapper. It is hypothesised that the increased manufacturing machinery speed may be due to decreased slippage as the wrapper is fed through the machinery and the articles are circumscribed with the wrapper. The rough surface is believed to affords greater grip, allowing the wrapper to be pulled along at greater speeds by the machinery.
  • the wrappers of the present invention also enjoy the advantage that less glue required to hold the wrapper in place around the article. It is normal for the wrapper to be positioned around the article and for the longitudinal seam to be glued, attaching the overlapped wrapper to itself, and attaching the rougher (inner) surface to the smoother (outer) surface.
  • the amount of glue required to hold the wrapper in place will depend upon a number of factors. If the glue dries faster, less is needed to achieve the desired securing of the wrapper. The hypothesis is that the glue dries quicker when applied to the wrappers of the present invention because the wrapper material is hygroscopic, adsorbing the water from the glue, leaving a more concentrated layer of glue on the surface to provide the desired adhesion.
  • the wrappers of the present invention also enjoy the advantage that, when they circumscribe a rod of aerosol-generating material, the rougher surface that is in contact with the aerosol-generating material forms a larger contact surface and holds the material in position better, reducing the amount of aerosol-generating material that falls out of the end of the rod (so-called "end fall out”).
  • the wrappers of the present invention also enjoy the advantage that the smooth surface which is position so that it is the visible surface of an article provides a superior appearance of the wrapped article. More porous wrappers have been found less attractive to consumers, giving the impression of poorer quality. In contrast, the smooth surface of the wrapper which is visible when the wrapper surrounds an aerosol-generating article gives the article a high quality, expensive appearance. In embodiments where the wrapper is formed by bandcasting, the smooth surface can have a glossy appearance that is visible on the surface of an article formed with such a wrapper.
  • the roughness of the surfaces of the wrappers disclosed herein may be assessed as Bendtsen roughness.
