GPA announces new specialty foil boards for offset presses

GPA proudly announces the addition of Mirri and MirriNor Boards to their collection of specialty substrates for offset presses. These substrates have a high quality metallic film surface engineered for superior printability, which adds dimension and value to any project for truly stunning printed pieces. Now, by just using your existing inks, you can create a shimmering palette of colors for endless creative special effects.

The 12 pt. Silver and Gold Mirri Boards have a super glossy mirror finish, and are laminated to a premium cast-coated board. The 28 pt. Silver MirriNor Board is backed with the patented “T-Flute” micro-fluted corrugated board to provide robust strength at a light weight. Mirri and MirriNor boards add life and radiance to any project – they are excellent for creating packaging, tags, invitations, greeting cards, certificates, menus, business cards, catalog covers, tickets, and more. MirriNor is a unique substrate with no equal in the marketplace; its superior strength makes it especially suited for premium packaging and dazzling display graphics that get noticed.

To provide maximum application versatility, these premium boards are compatible with a variety of finishing processes including laminating, die cutting, scoring, gluing, folding, UV coating, embossing and debossing. Mirri Boards are stocked in 12 pt. silver and gold colors in 39.3” x 27.5” sheets, and MirriNor is available in 28 pt. silver in a 39.3” x 27.5” sheet size. These new items complement GPA’s existing offering of Mirri Boards for HP Indigo presses to provide a broad range of solutions for a variety of different pressrooms. Additional colors and sizes are also available; contact GPA for more options.
