Which paper do I use?

In total, print24 offers you over 20 different paper types with varying thicknesses. The different paper types all vary in their surface finish, opacity, thickness, GSM (grammage) and colourfulness (varying whiteness).

Coated art paper

• Grammage: 90 gsm | 115 gsm | 135 gsm | 170 gsm | 250 gsm | 350 gsm
• Surface: matt or glossy, coated

We achieve the best printing results with so-called coated art paper, so-called because the surface is refined with a “coating” – a bonding agent. This involves applying a specific colour coating whose main components are chalk, kaolin, casein or polymer dispersion. All papers are generally first matt after coating. To achieve a glossy effect, it then needs to be put through two high-pressure rollers called a calendar. This gives the paper a very smooth, solid surface which not only feels nice but also enables better print quality and greater detail. The colours are absorbed less and look bold and intense.

Coated art paper, as used by us, generally has a very low volume. To attain the smooth surface, the material is compressed during production so that the volume is below 1.0.

Premium board
If the flyers need to be printed on thicker coated art paper, we offer premium cardboard with 400 gsm, which is only available in matt. Did you know - All our coated art paper is PEFC-certified.

Offset printing paper

• Grammage: 80 gsm | 90 gsm | 100 gsm | 120 gsm | 350 gsm | 400 gsm
• Surface: matt, uncoated, writeable (up to 120 gsm useable with home-printers)

We use another type of paper for offset printing. The uncoated offset paper is characterised by its intense 164 CIE whiteness. This printing paper is made from up to 100% cellulose and is writable. Additionally, the offset paper with a grammage of up to 100 gsm can be used for printing in your home printer.

Premium special papers

Our Chamois paper (100 gsm or 300 gsm) variety uses a warm earthy colour which gives your print product a naturally classy effect in creamy white. Anyone wanting to make their flyers stand out through particular refinement can also choose bright white paper (115 gsm or 350 gsm), which also impresses with a very smooth and velvety surface.

Our selection of premium paper is rounded off with Linen-finish (130 gsm or 350 gsm) and “Ribbed” (120 gsm or 350 gsm) varieties. Not only will they ensure your flyers have a greater visual impact, but will also be unique to the touch with a really elegant linen finish or ribbing.

Eco-friendly recycling paper

Recycling paper is an environmentally friendly alternative to the aforementioned paper types. It is Blue Angel-certified and boasts excellent 133 CIE whiteness. This paper is made 100% from recycled papers and has a natural, slightly rough surface. With our recycled paper, you have the choice between 80 and 300 gsm of grammage.

Groundwood pulp board

Groundwood pulp board with its slightly structured surface is particularly suitable for printing your message or logo. The extraordinary material has a thickness of 1.4 millimetres with a grammage of 575 gsm. The cardboard is made of shredded wood with a slightly cream colouring, which results from the lignin content of the cardboard. This component ensures that your flyers are particularly stable.

Felt-marked plain paper

Our felt-marked plain paper has a classic handmade structure. It has a pleasant volume of 1.4 combined with a soft feel. It is FSC® certified and made of pure ECF pulp (elemental chlorine free). The characteristic refined surface structure inspires a wide range of applications such as high-quality publications, flyers, postcards/folded cards, posters and stationery. Use it when you prefer classic textures.

Grass paper

We offer grass paper as a "green" natural paper. It is an environmentally friendly alternative in its production, in which the proportion of grass fibres can be up to 40%, depending on the intended use. Depending on further processing, contact of the material with dry, low-fat food is unproblematic, and it can be recycled and composted. Allergy sufferers need not worry, grass paper contains no allergens. The natural-coloured material has a textured, tactile surface. Since grass paper is an organic material, the natural colouring can vary from batch to batch. In addition, the inherent colouring of the paper affects the colours printed on it. A slight scent of grass is possible, but this will fade over time.

Kraft paper

The particularly strong kraft paper has a high tear/tensile strength due to the long pulp fibres it contains. Depending on the degree of lignin contained, the colour of the paper typically ranges from white to brown. Our kraft paper is white on the front and natural brown on the back. Due to its open-pored surface, printing inks are absorbed more strongly. This makes the print result less radiant than on coated paper. On the other hand, unlike most other papers, it is water-repellent to a certain extent.

STAFIX®STATIC

STAFIX®STATIC is an adhesive-free paper that adheres by means of a static charge to almost all clean surfaces: glass, wood, marble, plastic, metal, etc. but not to textiles or other porous surfaces. The material is easy to apply and remove without leaving any residue: Peel the film from the cardboard backing, place on the surface and finally brush over it again for better fixation - that's all. It sticks for an average of 3 months, the less repositioning is done and the smoother the surface is. The material consists of 2 layers:

• 50 micron thick polypropylene film (top layer)
• 200 gsm cardboard backing (Lower layer)

The film adheres to the cardboard backing by means of two adhesive lines: a continuous adhesive line at the front of the sheet and an interrupted adhesive line at the end of the sheet.

The printing process

The offset printing process enables larger orders to be printed at a lower cost, and fonts to be printed with sharper contours. In this flat printing process, the ink is transferred from the pigmented printing plate to a rubber blanket and then applied to the flyer. Indirect offset printing helps make your flyers more abrasion-resistant, and usually more stable and lightfast. We particularly recommend offset printing for larger orders.

Digital printing: Gold and Silver colours even in small print runs

Say it with colour – in which colours do you want your flyers printed?

Whether it be black and white, 4C or gold and silver, print24 in Great Britain offers you an extensive range of colours to print your flyers. Standard colours come in the four-colour CMYK option, while multi-colour printing using special colours is performed using Pantone Matching System (PMS) and their so-called Pantone colour fans. There are 25 colours to choose from. The PMS colours are in turn assigned to certain paper types such as coated paper (C), uncoated paper (U) and matt coated paper (M).

At print24, you can both combine monochrome black printing, and enhance CMYK four-colour printing with Pantone colours. In this case, it is also referred to as additional spot colours. At print24, you can both combine monochrome black printing, and enhance CMYK four-colour printing with Pantone colours. This also involves additional spot colours.

• Black
• Black + Pantone
• Black + Gold
• Black + Silver
• CMYK
• CMYK + Pantone
• CMYK + Gold
• CMYK + Gold Digital
• CMYK + Silver
• CMYK + Silver Digital
• CMYK + Gold/Silver Digital

As a special highlight, we offer two options for printing gold or silver inks. First the classical method in offset printing and second in digital printing. With the latter, it is also possible to use with small print runs. Printing of Gold Digital/Silver Digital is done using metallic toner with special pigments that create a reflection. As a result, it is in no way inferior to offset printing and enables metallic effects even in gradations. With the "Gold/Silver Digital" option, four-colour printing can be enhanced with gold and silver at the same time! The luxurious silver and gold decorations invite you to touch, marvel at and browse the pages and stylishly complete your professional appearance. Whether delicate highlights or full-surface printing - silver and gold inks can mean the difference between just looking at and wanting to keep. Give your print the "Midas touch".

Refinements: Blind embossing | Hot foil flat embossing | Relief varnish | UV spot varnish

Topping off your flyer: Refining

At print24, we offer you seven different options for refining your flyers and transforming them into unique products.

1. Blind embossing:
   This embossing process makes your flyers three dimensional, accentuating fonts, logos or patterns. This special feature not only instantly catches the eye of your existing or potential customers, but also provides a unique tactile experience.
   Coated art paper starting from 250 gsm, Premium papers starting from 120 gsm and 350 gsm Offset paper
2. Lamination:
   This option involves us applying a wafer-thin film to your flyer, not only enhancing its look but also ensuring it is better protected and more robust. Special films can create additional tactile and visual effects through matting or gloss, or through velvety or linen finishes.

3. Hot foil flat embossing:
   This refinement option adds luxurious gloss, so for example if you select gold or silver metallic foils. During printing, the hot foil can be applied precisely to a predefined area as a transfer foil.

4. Hot foil relief embossing:
   This is a combination of relief embossing and hot foil embossing. Your flyers become three dimensional, and the refinement enables impressive light reflections. Next to gold- and silver foil you also have the choice between bronze-, copper-, red- or blue-metallic-foil for the relief embossing.

5. Relief varnish:
   While blind embossing can also be felt on the back page of the flyer, the relief varnish only works on the surface. This option may be used to visually and tactilely accentuate, for example, a logo or slogan..

6. UV varnish:
   This involves applying an additional layer of varnish to significantly increase your flyer’s robustness and also create impressive visual effects. The varnish can be applied across the entire flyer, or only to selected parts as UV spot varnish.
   Coated art paper starting from 115 gsm
7. UV spot varnish:
   Partial UV spot varnish, similar to the relief varnish, is just applied to certain elements on the flyer. The ultra-thin varnish layer can be used to visually highlight important information by reflecting the light more intensely.

Folding variants - The processing of flyers

In addition to the refinement options presented here, you can also further accentuate things with perforation and creasing. While our normal flyers are printed single-sided or double-sided Folded leaflets allow you to choose from different folding options such as half fold, french fold or parallel fold or a combination of fold types.

Single page flyer

The classical flyer without any creasing can be printed on one or both sides. They are, depending on format and paper, suitable to use as invitations, product information or as information material at trade fairs. The flyer can be created with any type of paper and in all kinds of formats. Optionally, we are able to add individual creasing or perforation.

Folding types: half fold flyer | french fold flyer | 8-sided double gatefold flyer

Half fold flyer

The simplest of the folding types with just one fold is the half fold. It's also called single fold as it folds the page in half. This folding type results into a 4-sided flyer that is particularly suitable for product flyers, mini-brochures, vouchers or greeting cards.

French fold flyer

This is a combination of two half folds – The page is first folded in half horizontally and then again vertically. The simplest of the french folds, with two folds, results into 8 pages. It's therefore a fitting choice for posters and maps.

Parallel fold flyers

The folded edges of this folding type run parallel to each other. Some of the parallel folds are the double gatefold, double parallel fold, the concertina fold and the trifold.

Double gate fold flyer

To create an 8-sided roll fold flyer both outer sides will be folded towards the middle so that the outer edges touch in the middle of the flyer (6 sided gate or window fold). Afterwards, the flyer is folded in the middle (where the outside edges touch).The double gatefold offers enough space for detailed information for events or new products, especially in the A4 format.

Double parallel fold flyer

The Double parallel fold is simply an extension of the single fold. The page is folded in half twice in the same direction. This results in 3 folds and 8 pages. print24 is also able to print a triple parallel fold flyer with 16 pages. With a format of 105 x 210 mm it offers enough space for an extensive program of events.

Concertina fold flyer

The concertina or zig-zag fold with at least two folds results into a 6-page flyer. Each page is folded in the opposite direction to its neighbour, giving a pleated or concertina effect. Present your new product information with a high-quality zig-zag-flyer in the A6 format and impress your customers with special refinements. At print24 in Great Britain, you can also print your concertina fold flyers with 8 pages (3 folds), 10 pages (4 folds) or 12 pages (5 folds).

Trifold flyer

The panels of the trifold flyer all fold in on each other, "wrapping" around one page. The simplest form of the trifold has two folds and results in a flyer with 6 pages. Depending on the format it can be used for menus or event information pamphlets. Incase 6 pages are not enough you also have the possibility at print24 to print a roll fold-flyer with 3 folds and 8 pages.

Folding types: Double parallel flyer | Z-fold flyer | Trifold flyer

Combination of fold types

In addition to the regular folding types, you have the opportunity at print24 to combine them. You can choose between different folding types dependant on the number of pages needed.
