One of the reasons that brands continue to rely on paper as their substrate of choice for any number of applications is versatility and flexibility. Plus, the printability of paper compared to other substrates makes it faster and easier to print a range of materials, like signs, posters, and a variety of sales and marketing materials.
However, traditional paper is not necessarily the most durable print media, and this is where synthetic paper comes in as a tearproof, weatherproof solution that’s ideal for retailers, restaurants, and event spaces.
Foldable synthetic paper — a print media made from polypropylene for enhanced durability — is the best of both worlds, combining the print quality and pliability of traditional paper with the ability to withstand environmental elements. Here, we’ll look at a handful of applications that are ideal for foldable synthetic paper, and why the new Nekoosa PP Synthetic foldable paper is the choice for these specific applications.
Foldable synthetic paper for restaurant menus
The ability to manipulate the form and shape makes foldable synthetic paper a value-driven choice for restaurant menus. Not only can foldable synthetic paper provide superior flexibility and pliability, this kind of print media is weatherproof, making it ideal for indoor and outdoor use.
This can be an extremely important value add for restaurants with more regular menu offerings that don’t require frequent updates or reprints. Table tents, shelf wobblers, and plant and bottle tags also fall into this camp and are ideal applications for foldable synthetic paper.
Nekoosa PP Synthetic raises the bar on foldable synthetic paper via compatibility with a number of post-press converting processes to help take your print materials — like restaurant menus — to a whole new level. With Nekoosa PP Synthetic, you can incorporate finishings like die cutting, perforating, and scoring to create more visually appealing menus that better engage and delight customers.
Foldable synthetic paper for brochures and manuals
A sales or marketing brochure can be your opportunity to make a positive first impression, which means you want to put your best foot forward in terms of print quality.
Tear-resistant, foldable synthetic paper helps create a more durable, heavy-duty brochure that’s printed to last. This lends a more premium, higher-value feel to the brochure that can be used to convey the enhanced value of your product or service.
Plus, the polypropylene composition of synthetic paper allows for outstanding print and color quality even with double-sided graphics. This is key for brochures and manuals, especially for those that incorporate a large volume of schematics or other visuals.
Nekoosa PP Synthetic also offers excellent print registration for sharp, crisp text and images that produce a polished, professional finish on every print job.
Foldable synthetic paper for product tags
Whether you’re printing plant tags, bottle tags, or other kinds of product tags, foldable synthetic paper can help ensure that these applications remain blemish-free without sacrificing print and color quality. Plus, the right foldable synthetic paper can help extend the service life of product tags and enhance legibility.
Achieving this level of print excellence and long lifespan requires a foldable synthetic paper that balances a luxurious aesthetic with superior functionality.
