New Generation of Matte-Coated Inkjet Papers from Mitsubishi HiTec Paper

Press release from the issuing company

The new premium matt coated inkjet papers from Mitsubishi HiTec Paper are perfect for high-quality photo books, among other things.

Bielefeld – For many years, Mitsubishi HiTec Paper's matt inkjet papers have established themselves as the standard in the market. Now the Bielefeld-based speciality paper manufacturer has revised the entire matt portfolio of its jetscript® inkjet media.

The new generation of matt inkjet papers with basis weights from 70 to 228 g/m² impresses with a whole range of product improvements. The optimised coated ink-receiving layer enables particularly vivid, lifelike and brilliant colours. The homogeneous, even surface of the new papers is particularly noticeable with large-area prints. The higher optical ink density optimises the reproduction of dark and black shades in particular.

The application areas of the new inkjet papers range from large-format and poster prints in retail and at the POS, direct mailings, publishing and brochures to photos and photo books.

In the course of optimising the product range, the previous products will be replaced as follows:

> MH 84 => MH 86 (premium matt coated) 

> MD 84 => MD 86 (premium matt coated, double-sided) 

> ML 84 => ML 85 (matt coated) 

> DL 84 => DL 85 (matt coated, double-sided)

In addition, two new premium matt-coated inkjet papers are available especially for use as face material for label applications: jetscript MH 7086 L and MH 9086 L.

Of course, the entire new range of matt inkjet papers is available FSC ® Mix or PEFC™ certified and is suitable for both dye and pigment inks. The Mitsubishi HiTec Paper sales team will be happy to provide sample material ([email protected]).
