The invention relates to a
multiple layer laminate such as a printing carrier, especially in the form of antifalsification paper such as
bank notes. Said
multiple layer laminate or more precisely the printing carrier comprises at least one plastic layer (22) having an upper side (20) and a lower side (21), an upper paper layer (11) which is connected to the upper side (20) of the plastic layer (22), and optionally a lower paper layer (12) which is connected to the lower side (21) of the plastic layer (22). The aim of the invention is to achieve an especially intimate connection between the individual
layers, with simultaneously good printability and with similar haptic characteristics such as those of pure paper carriers. To this end, a
thermoplastic polymer material is used as the plastic layer (22), and the connection between the paper
layers (11, 12) and the plastic layer (22) is ensured, essentially without additional bonding agents, by means of penetration regions (13, 14) in which parts of the plastic layer (22) are melted with the
mass of fibre composite of the paper
layers (11, 12). To this end, the penetration regions (13, 14) essentially do not extend to the surfaces of the paper layers opposing the plastic layer (22).
