New addition to Premier Paper’s arsenal
Minworth headquartered Premier Paper has recently launched the latest addition to their portfolio of digital print media - DigiTuff. Available exclusively in the UK from Premier Paper, this incredibly strong, highly durable, bright white polyester sheet media. DigiTuff has been engineered for performance so is perfectly optimised for use with both colour and mono digital print processes. It withstands bleach and chemical cleaning, temperatures from -40 to 250 degrees and is suitable for die cutting, over-varnishing, hole punching and other finishing; the smooth matt surface enables the production of vibrant images and excellent toner bonding for outstanding end results; the ideal candidate for those applications that require the combination of durability and high print quality such as menus and point of sale displays.
It is a polyethylene terephthalate (PET), commonly referred to as Polyester and PET films have good stiffness with high dimensional and temperature stability. They are bi-axially oriented during the manufacturing process which develops a very high tensile strength. This trait makes DigiTuff the perfect for outdoor applications such as signage, running bibs, military maps/manuals and industrial tags.
As well as being resistant to tearing, DigiTuff is relentlessly durable. The synthetic sheet is waterproof, greaseproof, petrol-proof, oil-proof and can be cleaned with bleach; ideal for applications in the medical and catering industries. And despite misconceptions about synthetic media, DigiTuff is PVC-free and can be recycled as category 7 plastics for disposal.
