“Performance World” is the slogan of the Osnabrück-based Felix Schoeller Group at this year’s Drupa, where it is presenting a comprehensive portfolio of products for high-end digital printing.

The Osnabrück-based specialty paper manufacturer is using its presence at Stand E20, Hall 4 to showcase a wide range of products and demonstrate their use. The focus will be on its high-speed papers for commercial inkjet printing, which are sold under the brand names JET-SPEED® and JET-LINE. The products in the JET series are innovative papers - coated and uncoated - which are used for applications such as mail shots, brochures, and books. Their winning features are fast ink drying and adhesion, making for improved productivity in the print phase, along with excellent line sharpness and a high colour gamut. The glossy high-speed inkjet papers, which have the look and feel of coated woodfree paper, are a special highlight, explains Jörg Borker, commercial manager of Felix Schoeller‘s Digital Media Business Unit. 

A second highlight of the product range being showcased is the first complete portfolio of proofing papers, comprising the high-calibre TRUST papers that comply with all common proofing standards, in particular the new FOGRA standards 51 and 52. Visitors with an interest in these papers can find valuable information about the new standards and experience at first hand the difference between papers with and without optical brighteners. Schoeller’s proofing portfolio is available in grammages ranging from 100 to 250 g/m² and in glossy through to matt finishes. The flat matt surface is similar to an offset paper. The papers are used in check, design and contract proofs. 

Other products in the comprehensive portfolio include the new S-RACE® papers for sublimation printing on textiles and hard substrates. E-PHOTO® papers, which can be used in photo books, greetings cards, brochures and menus, will also be showcased, along with Felix Schoeller Digital Media’s E-CANVAS, a genuine canvas product that has been certified for HP Indigo systems. The Technocell Dekor Business Unit will also be exhibiting its full range of impregnable inkjet-printable substrates. Technocell Dekor will have exhibition pieces on show at its stand, featuring papers produced by the business unit to demonstrate its solution-oriented approach.

“The Felix Schoeller Group’s product presentation at Drupa offers numerous opportunities to experience the company’s comprehensive and diverse product portfolio at first hand. A discussion with the experts at our stand will enable visitors to explore a number of interesting topics in great depth,” the Digital Media Business Unit’s technical manager Thomas Leifert explains with total conviction.

The Osnabrück-based company is demonstrating its commitment to Olympic sport as premium paper partner of the German Olympic team in two ways: all visitors to Felix Schoeller’s stand at the show can enter a competition to win a trip to the Rio Olympics. All they have to do is hand in their business card. On 7 June, the Felix Schoeller team will uphold a good trade show tradition and welcome a successful athlete to its stand. Julian Reus, sprinter and gold medallist over 60 and 200 metres in Leipzig this year, will be available to answer visitors' questions and sign autographs. 

The Felix Schoeller Group can be found at Stand E20 in Hall 4.
