Chicago, Ill. – GPA, the market leader in substrate solutions for digital, wide format, and offset printing, announces the addition of two new Sirio Pearl color papers to their offering: Shiny Blue and Coal Mine. These decadent shimmering papers open up a world of premium opportunities for printers, designers, and brand owners.

These colors need to be seen firsthand to appreciate their breathtaking appearance; Shiny Blue offers the look of a sparkling sapphire, while Coal Mine presents the impression of glimmering quartz. They are a perfect complement to the growing demand for print embellishments, paring exceptionally well white and metallic inks and toners for truly dramatic designs. Their rich color and luminescent appearance make Sirio Pearl papers ideal for creating luxury business cards, invitations, holiday cards, packaging, promotions, and more.

Sirio Pearl papers can be transformed through a variety of finishing processes, including folding, scoring, gluing, die cutting, blind embossing, laminating, and hot-foil stamping, and offer compatibility with today’s top white-ink enabled dry toner presses, including Xerox iGen 5, Kodak NexPress, and Ricoh Pro C7110. They are engineered to offer stunning image reproduction and superior ink hold-out, allowing designs to reach their full brilliance.

Because they are FSC certified and acid free with archival properties, these papers provide added assurance that they are made from responsible sources and will look beautiful for years to come. They are also completely biodegradable and recyclable.
