Hop Industries, manufacturer of the durable Hop-Syn
synthetic paper today announces that it will showcase Hop-Syn TO and BL
synthetic paper grades at the GlobalShop Trade Show and Conference, which takes
place at McCormick Place in Chicago, March 27-29, 2018. Hop-Syn is a 100%
recyclable, environmentally-friendly substrate designed for UV and LED-printed
retail signage such as blockout point of purchase displays, banners and window
posters, as well as backlit displays, transit signs, and more. At the event,
Hop (booth #934) is giving away copies of its 2018 product guide, along with
free samples of Hop-Syn synthetic paper.
“We are excited to return to GlobalShop. This event
provides an excellent opportunity for retailers and their print service
providers to see various applications of Hop-Syn’s sustainably-printed,
high-quality retail displays,” comments Jack Smith, Senior Vice President, Hop
Industries. “Hop-Syn is ideal for budget-conscious retailers that need a
durable, yet environmentally-friendly substrate.”
Hop is featuring two synthetic paper grades at
GlobalShop, Hop-Syn TO and BL. Hop-Syn TO is a 98% opaque, white matte
synthetic paper, and is a top choice by design agencies and print service
providers (PSPs) for blockout banners, posters, and point of purchase displays.
The waterproof, tear resistant substrate is UV-resistant, up to one year
outdoors.
Hop-Syn BL synthetic paper is a white translucent
polypropylene sheet used for backlit displays and transit posters in bus shelters
and airports. Its smooth matte, 63% translucent white finish, allows PSPs to
print sharp images with high color density for a stunning visual effect.
Hop-Syn BL offers the print performance, color dispersion and dimensional
stability of backlit polyester, but at a fraction of the cost. Hop-Syn BL and
TO are easily printable by LED, latex and UV inkjet, as well as offset,
flexography, screen, and thermal transfer.
