Substrates are the highest single cost for all printing and packaging applications – any reduction in their waste and damage improves both economic and environmental performance. The guide covers paper and board in rolls and sheets used for publishing and packaging applications for all major printing processes.
The 270-page guide has a cover price of 250 € but is available as a FREE e-book to users because project members believe that price should not be a barrier to making best practices available to all.
