Synthetic paper is said to be suitable as a replacement for paper in applications where durability and longevity is desired. It reportedly has a matte paper-like finish, is non-tearable, has moisture and chemical resistance, and excellent lay flatness. The product is available in 75, 95, 120, 150, 175, 195, 215, 275, 330, 375, and 430 microns.
S.

This universal printable product will help printers to significantly reduce their inventory carrying costs.”
