Freesheet Hybrid BowHybrid Freesheet Hybrid BowText 80 BowText 75C

Bowater's new freesheet hybrid product category combines the strength and brightness required in freesheet applications with the exceptional opacity and bulk of mechanical furnishes. This grade, called BowHybrid,is available in both vellum and smooth finishes. Made to caliper, BowText 80, is perfect for many book applications such as workbooks, user's manuals, and other educational materials. BowText 75C, is excellent for both hardcover and trade paperback books. In addition,the paper features a light coating which offers exceptional ink holdout characteristics for better ink mileage and more snap and clarity in print resolution. BowHybrid and BowText use less wood fiber than traditional uncoated freesheet - a clear environmental benefit. *For further information about BowHybrid and BowText, please see the freesheet hybrid FactSheet (PDF) or visit www.freesheethybrid.com.
