Arjowiggins Graphic Present at Landmark Event Hosted By HP
Arjowiggins Graphic this week presented their 100% recycled inkjet range to top European Print Professionals at a unique one-day “Share and Learn” event hosted by HP, which focused on demonstrating the application capability of inkjet printing across the book, magazine, newspaper, Direct Mail, POS and poster platforms.
The innovative inkjet range supports recycling as an important part of the digital lifecycle. As digital printing technologies increase, it is essential for the industry to develop effective solutions to ensure compatibility with recycling mills, such as those operated by Arjowiggins Graphic, when digital prints become a more significant portion of the recovered paper stream.
By producing 100% recycled inkjet and digital papers, whilst ensuring these papers can be recycled; Arjowiggins Graphic are effectively ‘closing the loop’ creating a virtuous life cycle.
The “Share and Learn” event, hosted at one of HP’s customer sites in Brussels, explored development in areas such as media (glossy, lightweight and uncoated), finishing, inks and Bonding Agent.
John Cooper, Customer Support Director, Arjowiggins Graphic commented on the event:
“Digital printing has many positive benefits such as reducing energy usage, cost and emissions. As global ecological issues highlight the paper industry as a key actor for change, it was important for us to relay the synergy between recycled papers and digital printing.”
This “Share and Learn” event is part of the longstanding partnership Arjowiggins Graphic has with HP. The company currently provides high-quality recycled paper for HP Indigo machinery testing and showcase at events such as sales exhibitions. Earlier this year, Arjowiggins Graphic launched Cocoon Jet Pro, an uncoated paper with HP ColorPro Technology specifically designed for high-speed web inkjet.
Commenting on this partnership, John Cooper said:
“As a preferred media partner to HP, we have an excellent opportunity that will benefit customers and promote the importance of recycled papers in digital printing. We expect our dialogue with to further the knowledge and understanding between paper and digital printing.”
