Digital Papers--Made to Order

Launched in 1998, Mohawk Digital Papers enjoyed double-digit growth early on, backed by the familiarity of established lines such as Navajo and Superfine.

"Customer expectations for color printing are driving demand for high-performance papers," Harrold says of Mohawk Digital Papers' support of the Heidelberg Quickmaster DI line and devices with Xeikon-based engines. "Quality formation, smoothness of surface, brightness, the way a paper feels—these are all measurable characteristics that have led to our success. We've been able to stay ahead of the field by increasing the size of our R&D department. We've invested time and effort into looking at new equipment in the queue and tweaking our digital papers to meet demand."
