"In most areas of the printing industry, and especially in advertising and sales promotion where the printed image plays an important role in building a brand, the demand for the highest possible print quality and an optimal visual appearance is increasing," says Marco Eikelenboom, Sales and Marketing Director of Sappi Fine Paper Europe.
"This, together with the need for greater efficiency throughout the printing process, has led to the increasing use of long 8 to 12-color presses, either for straight printing or perfecting. Our Next Generation 12C coated fine paper is recommended for these presses due to specific benefits such as high print densities on both sides of the paper, dimensional stability and faster ink take-up and absorption."
Sappi's fine papers include Magno, HannoArt, Next Generation, Presto and Royal graphic papers and the specialty label and packaging papers Algro, Leine and Parade. Customers in over 100 countries worldwide specify these brands for publishing, advertising, label and packaging printing of the highest quality.
