Saving money is good, but saving money and the environment is even better.


Introducing ECOPAQUE, the new high-opacity, earth-friendly alternative to uncoated freesheet. Designed to raise standards while keeping costs down, ECOPAQUE uses 50% less wood fiber than a traditional uncoated freesheet and is manufactured totally chlorine-free. Available in basis weights of 42.5 lb, 45 lb and 50 lb, ECOPAQUE has the opacity of a much heavier basis weight premium opaque offset paper — without the premium cost. So switch to the lighter basis weight ECOPAQUE and save.

The ECOPAQUE advantage


  • Breakthrough high whiteness UFS Substitute
  • Uses 50% less wood fiber than UFS
  • Totally chlorine-free
  • Delivers 60 lb caliper and opacity in a 45 lb paper for more linear feet of paper per ton than uncoated freesheet
  • Lighter weight can help reduce paper and mailing costs
  • CIE Whiteness/ISO Brightness:120/90
 

Sold in rolls, ECOPAQUE is ideal for commercial printing jobs that traditionally use uncoated freesheet:

  • Direct mail
  • Forms
  • Book publishing
  • Financial printing
  • Inserts
  • Flyers
  • Instruction manuals
  • Maps
  • Newsletters
  • Workbooks


ECOPAQUE: Earth friendly. Budget friendly.
