Substrate Options —‘Paper or Plastic?’

A word about synthetic paper. Synthetic paper refers to plasticized paper substrates containing paper fiber or materials such as polypropylene-based Yupo synthetic papers, which can be printed and dried conventionally, and wiped clean when soiled. In addition to printing on a wide array of plastic materials, Quantum Graphics, Morton Grove, IL, uses Yupo synthetics extensively for publications work like catalogs, trail guides, workbooks, trucking manuals and other rough-duty applications. According to Tony Novack, COO, "It's a case of good product in, good product out."
