Available immediately and exclusively through Premier in the UK and Ireland with next-day delivery, the company said PaperTac would help users to reduce their signage waste and meet their sustainability targets.
PaperTac features a 140gsm white matt coated paper with a clear permanent adhesive and is compatible with aqueous, latex, and UV print technologies.
The product can be mounted to a rigid fibre-based display board and, because it is 100% recyclable, the entire product can be recycled in a single waste stream. There is also no need to separate the adhesive paper face layer from the substrate.
“PaperTac represents a significant step forward for printers and end users wanting to make more sustainable choices, reducing waste and diverting it from landfill,” said Brad West, Premier wide format director, UK & Ireland.
“By combining PaperTac with fibre-based boards, PSPs can offer a recyclable alternative to traditional indoor signage, all without needing a flatbed printer.
“It’s a practical solution that allows customers to utilise their current roll-fed printing equipment even further to support clients’ environmental goals with amazing print results!”
PaperTac achieved a 91/100 recyclability score in testing under the CEPI Recyclability Test Method v2 (October 2022).
Both the face paper and adhesive were proven to recycle together with no visual or adhesion issues, allowing the final signage, when mounted to a fibre-based board, to be recycled like standard fibre-based waste.
PaperTac has water-repellent and scratch-resistant properties and also delivers up to five years’ indoor durability, making it suitable for retail and promotional signage, POS displays, exhibition and event graphics, and short-term indoor mounted posters.
