Mitsubishi HiTec Paper (Bielefeld, Germany) has launched its new Jetscript Metal VPG 1018, a metallic silver gloss inkjet paper developed for water-based inkjet printing and particularly suitable for self-adhesive label applications. “What’s so special about this new product is that metallic glossy inkjet labels were previously only possible using a metallic film,” said the company. “Jetscript Metal VPG 1018, however, is a pure fibre-based paper product with a metallic mirror finish and a transparent, microporous inkjet coating for excellent printing performance.”
Its main benefits and features include:
- 110 gsm
- Metallic silver mirror finish
- High print density
- Fast drying
- Suitable for water-based inkjet printing (dye and pigment inks)
- Compatible with latex inks
- Optimum performance in the self-adhesive production process (handling, labeling, matrix removal)
These features, said Mitsubishi HiTec Paper, make Jetscript Metal VPG 1018 not only the ideal product for eye-catching and high-quality labels in the cosmetics, beverage or food industry (produced via digital inkjet printing), but also ideal for exclusive, personalized wrapping paper, high-quality advertising panels and displays.
