Better Paper Storage Practices

Practical considerations

This guide is an introductory overview. Final paper selection should consider the printing or converting process, machine settings, GSM, bulk, stiffness, opacity, surface, grain direction, moisture conditions, end-use and cost.

Start with the application

Define what the finished product must achieve. A packaging carton requires different strength and folding characteristics from a premium brochure or POS receipt.

Request a suitable sample

Where possible, evaluate a representative sample under the intended production conditions before confirming a large order.
