part of its recently launched Mohawk Loop paper line, Mohawk Fine Papers, Cohoes, N.Y., USA, has introduced Mohawk Loop Silk coated paper. The new, FSC certified paper, made with 50% postconsumer waste fiber, has a matte gloss finish and its 92-bright white shade matches the white uncoated shades within the grade, making it possible to mix and match coated paper with distinctive uncoated finishes. The coated sheet is suitable for a variety of printing techniques from metallics and varnishes, to other specialty processes such as engraving and embossing. As with all Mohawk Loop papers, it is available in "right size" press sheet sizes for optimized imposition and maximum efficiency on press.

"Mohawk Loop Silk gives printers and designers the ability to combine tactility within any project, while maintaining color matches and an environmental standard throughout the project. And, because it's available with i-Tone, Mohawk Loop Silk is a cross-platform paper, making it easier to choose the right paper for any application, all within one grade line—Mohawk Loop," said Dave Van de Water, director of product and market development. Mohawk Loop is manufactured with Green-e certified windpower, made carbon neutral through the purchase of Verified Emission Reduction credits (VERs), and is packaged in Mohawk's new environmental packaging material.
