Nekoosa Coated Products Offers a New Product for HP Indigo Users

Nekoosa, Wisconsin-based Nekoosa Coated Products has introduced Indigo Durable Synthetic with IndiLuxe™ coating, a synthetic paper designed for use on HP Indigo presses.

“While the high quality synthetic paper base stock is an important part of our Indigo Durable Synthetic, the IndiLuxe™ coating is what really gives it great imaging and toner adhesion on HP Indigo presses,” said Nekoosa’s Product Development Specialist Brian Cummins. “We developed our IndiLuxe™ coating to be a best-in-class pretreatment that has extended shelf life and will not yellow over time. It also has premium features like slip additives to improve feeding and stacking, and additives to reduce static.”

Certified by the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), this product earned top ratings in all certification categories: runnability, fixing and blank compatibility. Like other synthetic substrates offered at Nekoosa Coated Products, Indigo Durable Synthetic is tear resistant and suitable for a variety of indoor and outdoor applications due to its resistance to water, grease and other chemicals.

President Paul Charapata added, “As we continue to see the number of HP Indigo installations increase throughout our customer base, we recognize the need to expand our product line. We now offer U20 carbonless, Synaps OM by Agfa® and Indigo Durable Synthetic for the HP Indigo press, all RIT certified. With the development of our proprietary coating, IndiLuxe™, we intend on expanding our HP Indigo product offering even further in the future.”
