Hello Hot Silk - Perfect for Printers who think smart

17th March 2011

The new luxury coated paper from Robert Horne that delivers significant cost savings and production efficiencies without compromising on quality.

Robert Horne, the materials expert, has extended the popular range of Hello branded papers, with Hello Hot Silk. It has a unique coating, developed using nanotechnology, which creates a smooth silk surface. This generates a luxurious, high quality feel to printed materials.

Printers benefit from fast ink setting and drying times as well as seeing improved scuff resistance. This leads to increased productivity and consistency, allowing shorter turnaround and quicker print runs. There is also the ability to print on the reverse side in just 15 minutes. Hello Hot Silk's advanced surface finish reduces the use of anti set-off powders by as much as 75%, removing the need for additional seals or varnishes for many applications, offering further cost savings and environmental benefits to the printer.

Paul French, Managing Director, Robert Horne comments: "Printers are constantly being asked to cut costs and maximise the efficiency of their presses. Hello Hot Silk is the answer. Its luxurious appearance, combined with its production saving properties, means printers can save time and money without compromising quality."

Hello Hot Silk with its silky appearance and velvet touch is perfect for high impact applications such as brochures, reports, premium collateral and art books. It outperforms gloss paper and delivers sharp imagery and outstanding half tone colours. Hello Hot Silk is available from Robert Horne in a wide range of grammages and sizes.
