Many Print Service Providers (PSPs) believe that their only option when it comes to running plastics is polyester (PET). Thanks to improved dry toner (DT) technology and our proprietary topcoat, that belief is now outdated. MGX offers two great alternative substrates to PET that bring their own set of advantages – and cost savings – to the press.
Synthetic Paper
Xquisite DT Synthetic Paper is a polypropylene-based film, which gives it a number of benefits and advantages over polyester.
PVC
DT PVC is a great alternative substrate to PET where rigidity and bulk in flat, non-folded applications are desired as well as the following benefits and advantages.
Please check the MGX Press Compatibility Guide to confirm suitability or mil-thickness limitation on the make/model digital press being considered. The end-use application may also dictate the most suitable substrate for a given job. Contact your MGX representative today to discuss alternative substrates to PET for your next project.
