Ahlstrom presents the compelling environmental credentials of paper for advertising at FESPA 2013 in London
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Ahlstrom Corporation PRESS RELEASE June 24, 2013 at 11.00
Ahlstrom, a global high performance fiber-based materials company, offers
innovative and sustainable papers for printing of efficient outdoor and indoor
advertising. During FESPA 2013 at ExCeL London on June 25-29, 2013, the company
will highlight how sustainability is a vital criterion for the advertising
industry and showcases its newest products: a metalized paper for stunning
outdoor billboards, a reinforced paper for scrolling backlit and a block-out
paper for 2-sides printed indoor posters.
Ahlstrom Chantaffiche(TM) poster paper is a powerful advertising media with
clear environmental credentials. In 2013, Ahlstrom conducted a life Cycle
Assessment (LCA) study on several paper and plastic substrates used for posters
applications to determine the impact of those products on the environment. The
Environmental Product Declaration of the Chantaffiche 250, 115 g/m² for
billboard applications will be made available at the show. Reviewed externally
according to ISO 14040/ISO14044 standards, this study demonstrates that paper is
better than plastic in nine out of nine environmental indicators.
"With this study, our aim was to identify opportunities for improving our
product environmental performance and make comparison between paper and plastic
substrates with respect to environmental credentials. We believe that paper as a
recyclable and biodegradable product is the right choice for impactful campaigns
and minimum environmental impact," explains Jan Witt, Product Manager, Poster
Papers.
Ahlstrom Chantaffiche(TM) is the widest range of posters papers for printing of
advertising campaigns. This extensive range of coated poster papers works
perfectly with offset, screen or inkjet wide-format printing, whether using
solvent, UV or latex inks.
FESPA 2013 is the largest focused event for the wide format print industry.
Ahlstrom booth is P5S.
