PaperCo to stock Arctic Paper's Arctic Volume range

Paper distributor and supplier PaperCo has announced it will stock environmentally-conscious paper manufacturer Arctic Paper UK's Arctic Volume range.

Arctic Volume is a high-quality matt-coated paper and board grade. The range consists of three papers, available in grammages between 90gsm and 300gsm.

Arctic Paper said the paper’s properties included high bulk, opacity and rigidity, which made it ideal for advertising material and magazines.

All Arctic Volume standard products are FSC certified, which ensures that pulp used in production is obtained from forests managed in a sustainable way.

A spokeswoman for Arctic Paper UK said PaperCo was its biggest customer. She declined to give figures on the size of the new contract for the Arctic Volume range.

Arctic Paper UK managing director Garry Colyer said: "This new distribution arrangement reaffirms the long-standing relationship between PaperCo and Arctic Paper and reinforces their position as the UK’s leading distributor of other Arctic grades including the Amber and G-Print products."

PaperCo category manager Chris Smith said: "We’re delighted to be introducing Arctic Volume into our coated portfolio. It’s a product well-renowned for its physical properties and outstanding print performance that allows our customers to optimise the yield advantage of lower grammages, helping to maximize budgets."
