Paper types
Silk
Silk coated paper is similar to gloss, it’s a coated paper with a satin finish and a slight sheen. This material feels softer and smoother than a gloss coated paper.
Uncoated
Unlike silk or gloss coated material, this paper does not have a coating, which gives it a soft feel. The uncoated stock allows inks to sinks into the paper, giving the colour a more neutral appearance. Uncoated paper and board are predominantly used on stationery items such as Letterheads, Compliments Slips and Business Cards.
Paper weights.
What is gsm?
Paper weights are referred to as ‘gsm’ which is an acronym for ‘grams per square meter’. The higher the gsm number, the heavier the paper.
130-170 gsm
The majority of our products are produced on this weight material, and is used for internal pages of brochures, leaflets and folded leaflets.
250-350gsm
Paper in this weight range is known as board weights. These are thick and haves a premium feel. We use this type of material for Covers, Flyers and Business Cards.
