Nowadays, advancements in specialty substrates – that’s just printers’ speak for the materials you can print on – are not only eliminating costly and time-consuming finishing but also enhancing the attractiveness and utility of your printed pieces. Here are just a few of the possibilities offered by today’s specialty substrates:

  • Synthetic substrates of polyester (not paper!) are gaining application where moisture or wear are of concern, such as menus, offering moisture- and grease-proof performance without the need for laminating.
  • Pressure-sensitive substrates in paper, polyester, and vinyl provide an adhesive, making them ideal for labels as well as signage such as window banners.
  • Dimensional substrates in paper and synthetics come pre-scored and ready for folding into boxes, tent cards, pocket folders, door hangers, greeting cards and even golf ball sleeves after printing.
  • Professional photo substrates provide the look and feel of high-luster photo paper when the highest-quality image reproduction is essential to your printed piece.

There’s more, of course, including specialty substrates with embedded magnets (e.g., for refrigerator applications), and snap-out cards (e.g., for memberships) as well as panoramic papers that enable beautiful images to flow seamlessly across the fold.
