Mondi expands its digital printing portfolio further with the introduction of DNS® high-speed inkjet. Other highlights: Color Copy indigo, DNS® indigo, NAUTILUS® and BIO TOP 3®.
The newly expanded digital printing portfolio from Mondi was presented for the first time in the UK at the Northprint exhibition in Harrogate from 10th-12th May 2011. For Mondi’s digital printing experts, Northprint provides an opportunity to speak directly with printers about their digital printing needs and frequent applications. In addition to well-known digital brands such as Color Copy, NAUTILUS® SuperWhite and BIO TOP 3® digiprint Mondi will debut its latest digital printing paper DNS® high- speed inkjet.
"High-speed inkjet technology is a growing market segment that combines the volume of offset printing with the flexibility and personalisation of digital printing and, therefore, is an attractive option for transactional and transpromo applications," explains Johannes Klumpp Sales and Marketing Director for Mondi Uncoated Fine Paper. "DNS® high-speed inkjet has a special surface treatment that ensures high quality print-outs and optimal ink absorption so colours will not bleed and clarity will not degrade due to dot-gain, for example. This is particularly important when one depends on crisp lines for barcode readability and accurate logo reproduction."
Due to the special surface treatment, the absorption of both water-based dye and pigment inks can occur at printing speeds of 200 meters/minute and higher. The paper has a smooth surface and high whiteness level, which fosters sharp contrasts and even ink distribution.These surface characteristics and physical properties are also optimal for book-on-demand applications, where future growth for high-speed inkjet applications is expected. DNS® high-speed inkjet is also part of Mondi’s eco-friendly Green Range, FSC® certified, CBS2 certified in 90 gsm and available with a CO2 neutral option.
