Bridge Opaque®
An uncoated hybrid paper that contains the optimum blend of bleached chemical and mechanical fiber and is known for its light basis weights and premium performance.
It is a top-of-the line hybrid paper that competes with freesheet papers, pioneering a new category of high-bright, high-performance publishing papers. Available in the industry’s lightest weights, the Bridge line delivers yield savings without compromising aesthetics, printability or runnability. It is the best-performing groundwood containing paper in the market.
Highlights:
- 80 brightness
- High freesheet content enhances print quality and press performance
- Superior opacity to minimize showthrough
- Excellent surface and strength characteristics
- Lightweights provide yield advantage
- Formulated to minimize reversion
- Wide range of PPI’s for high page count applications
Sustainability:
- Available with up to 30% post-consumer fiber
- Mechanical pulping process improves fiber utilization
- 100% of fiber originates from controlled or certified sources
- Certified to SFI® fiber sourcing standards, FSC® chain-of-custody
certification is order-specific
- Committed to minimizing carbon footprint through improved energy efficiency and the use of cogeneration
