“We have aligned our focus with the latest markets trends and the future needs of printers,” said Johannes Klumpp, Marketing and Sales Director for Mondi Uncoated Fine Paper. “Our recent Indigo certifications for DNS indigo and Color Copy indigo and the introduction of DNS high-speed inkjet appeal to the professional print market and will certainly be a point of interest at this year’s Hunkeler innovationdays.”

HP 3-star approved uncoated fine papers, DNS indigo and Color Copy indigo are premium papers tailored to professional printers who use HP Indigo digital presses. During the production process of these papers a special primer is applied to ensure perfect adhesion of HP’s ElectroInk. The 3-star approval is the highest performance rating for HP Indigo digital presses. It indicates the best performance in terms of runnability, fixing and blanket compatibility.

Mondi launched DNS premium in autumn 2010 as the digital printing paper that offers professional printers a single printing solution for any application. The hybrid character of the DNS range also offers printers more versatility in terms of machine use — DNS premium is ideal for use on digital production machines, office laser printers, inkjet printers and copiers and is also suitable for offset printing presses.

With the advancements in inkjet technology and its resurgence into professional print rooms, Mondi has harnessed its know-how of digital printing and inkjet technology to develop a new paper targeted for high-speed inkjet printers. The surface treated paper is a welcomed alternative to the narrow selection of papers in this newly developing market.

DNS high-speed inkjet wihad its premiere at the Hunkeler innovationdays. Visitors had an opportunity to learn more about Mondi’s professional formats on display: Color Copy (a CO2 neutral product since autumn 2010), Color Copy indigo, Color Copy Xeikon reel, NAUTILUS SuperWhite, DNS premium, DNS indigo, DNS high-speed inkjet, and BIO TOP 3.

Mondi’s complete digital printing portfolio consists of papers that are also part of Mondi’s Green Range of eco-friendly papers. All Green Range papers are FSC certified, bleached without chlorine, or 100% recycled.
