Antalis Launches 2U Silk And 2U Digital Silk, Two Premium Coated Papers With Strong Environmental Credentials
Antalis has announced the launch of 2U Silk and 2U Digital Silk, two high performance coated papers
designed to meet the evolving demands of commercial printers. With an Antalis Green Star System rating of 4, both products combine premium quality with strong environmental credentials, making them ideal for sustainable printed communications.
As part of Antalis’ expanding portfolio of environmentally responsible coated papers, 2U Silk and 2U Digital Silk are engineered to deliver outstanding print performance while supporting sustainability goals. They offer exceptional print clarity and high definition precision, producing crisp detail and vibrant colours that enhance the visual impact of printed materials.
2U Silk is available in a broad range of weights from 115gsm to 400gsm across SRA1, SRA2 and B1 formats. It provides excellent opacity across all grammages and a double sided, smooth coated surface that ensures optimal image reproduction.
2U Digital Silk is optimised for both dry toner and liquid toner laser printers, offering flawless runnability at all production speeds. It is available in weights from 115gsm to 400gsm and in SRA3 and B2+ digital press compatible sizes.
In addition to their technical benefits, both papers are FSC Mix Credit Certified, ensuring that they are responsibly sourced and meet stringent environmental standards.
Print clarity is exceptional, with high definition output that enables precise detail, while colour fidelity is accurate, delivering professional grade results. Even on lighter grammages, opacity remains high, maintaining the visual integrity and readability of printed content.
The core stock range meets the majority of customer needs, supported by an outstanding ex-mill service. Antalis offer rapid access to high volume mill-stocked products within just seven days, alongside a flexible cutter reel service that delivers bespoke or “pinch” sizes in as little as 15 days.
Category Manager at Antalis, Ben Cahill, comments: “2U Silk and 2U Digital Silk are both very impressive, coated papers. With excellent environmental credentials, they’re a great option for printers and their clients looking to produce printed communications sustainably.”
