Following the recent demise of French Mill Point Sainte Maxine (PSM) PaperCo has switched production of 9lives Offset to Arjowiggins.

The product has been rigorously tested and found to be a first rate match with the previous stocks so 9lives is now being output in quantity to meet the rising demand.

The paper will continue to be supplied in 80 to 350gsm (depending on format) but the 170gsm and 190gsm weights have been upgraded to 160 to 200gsm. The 160gsm paper is available in SRA1 and SRA2 formats and the 200gsm board in SRA2 only. Both weights can be supplied ream wrapped or in bulk.

"Customers can now rest assured that 9lives Offset supply will be reliable and that the quality of stock is of optimum standard," says PaperCo marketing director Bob Ide. "This is a very popular FSC certified stock using 100% recycled content which meets the environmental needs of many end users and printers."

9lives Offset was introduced in 2006 to complement the 9lives 80 and 9lives 55 "born again" range of recycled coated papers. Its high white shade, high bulk and excellent opacity make it ideal for all general commercial printing wherever an uncoated stock is the preferred choice.
