Media Release

Brussels, 31 January 2013

Jazzing it up with Digital Sappi Fine Paper Europe to present new digital Sappi l Jazbook in Lucerne.

Sappi Fine Paper Europe is gearing up to present Sappi l Jaz book, its new coated

digital paper, at the 10th edition of the Hunkeler innovationdays 2013 (11th 15th Feb

2013).

The recently launched Jaz book will be Sappis focus during the 2013 Hunkeler

innovationdays. This is Sappis new digital coated paper designed for printing books.

Franoise Accou, Product Service Manager said We have accumulated a lot of expertise in

digital printing over the years, particularly as a result of our partnership with HP, so it was

only natural that we would create a digital paper (in a lower grammage) specifically for full

colour book production. The high dimensional stability of the paper along with high opacity

means that it has the right characteristics for the job it has been designed to do.

Visitors to the innovationdays will be able to discover Sappi l Jaz book in action on the Kodak

Prosper press and on the Hunkeler stand. Franoise Accou, Product Service Manager

Digital, who will be present in Lucerne said, "The possibilities that exist with digital print are

incredibly exciting, and at Sappi, we are keeping our finger on the pulse of innovation. Thepotential for personalisation means that digital printing is as appealing to individuals wanting

to create a unique product at an affordable price, such as a self-published book, as it is to

large retailers who want to treat their customers as individuals through personalised direct

mail.
