Appvion Inc., Appleton, Wis., USA, has added Appvion Triumph™ Coated Ultra Brite-Matte High-Speed Inkjet Paper to the high-speed inkjet offerings of its specialty papers line. The new Triumph paper delivers superior quality and productivity for the newest generation of sheet-fed inkjet presses that use pigment aqueous inks.
The paper’s consistent quality, high brightness (96), and opacity (98) ensure dramatic color, excellent image contrast, and less show-through, Appvion noted. Plus, Triumph’s quick-dry surface is exceptionally smear resistant. "Commercial, publishing, and in-plant printers will find Triumph Coated Ultra Brite High-Speed Inkjet Paper an ideal choice for high-color commercial, direct mail, book, and transpromotional applications," the company pointed out.
Appvion Triumph Coated Ultra Brite-Matte Inkjet Paper is available in 7 pt. (160 GSM, 278 PPI) matte finish sheets. The paper’s pure-white color offers optimal smoothness and formation that delivers superb color outcomes, uniform print density, sharp lines, and even solids, as well as exceptional runnability and hassle-free performance in post-printing equipment. This new Triumph product, Appvion said, is certified on the sheet-fed Canon Océ VarioPrint i300 printer, so it’s user-ready for current and new installations.
"We engineered Triumph Coated Ultra Brite-Matte Inkjet Paper to take advantage of the superior capabilities of pigment-based inks," said Ethan Haas, Appvion’s VP and GM of carbonless and specialty papers. "This new product will deliver outstanding print and image quality for high-color coverage applications. Equally important, we make all of our inkjet paper in the U.S. and will maintain easy access to our full range of inventory, with low minimums and short lead times. So customers can expect quick response to orders and fast deliveries from us, which can help them lower their inventory costs," Haas added.
The new Triumph paper is available to merchants and printers through Appvion’s nationwide network of strategically located distribution centers. It is acid free, elemental chlorine free (ECF), and manufactured under ISO 14001:2004-certified environmental management systems. An FSC certified (FSC-C003368) version is available.
Appvion said that its design team will work with customers to develop products with custom colors or basis weights. The company also offers customers field technical support for product testing. Also, Triumph Coated High-Speed Inkjet papers are covered by Appvion’s 100% satisfaction guarantee.
