xpedx and Bulkley Dunton Named Exclusive Distributors

xpedx and Bulkley Dunton, leading U.S. suppliers of printing and publishing papers, announced they are distributors of Appleton Coated Utopia Inkjet papers.
The papers are used in today's new high-speed, multicolor web inkjet production printing presses, including those produced by HP.

Under the agreement, xpedx and Bulkley Dunton become the exclusive U.S. distributors of Appleton Coated Utopia Inkjet papers, expanding a long-standing relationship among the three companies. The papers, co-developed with HP, are one of the most technologically advanced printing substrates available today.

"These specially engineered, premium web inkjet papers are already creating profitable new markets in publishing and direct mail, with increasing commercial print applications," said Rob Watson, director of Marketing-Printing Papers, xpedx.

Publishers and commercial printers use the papers to produce personalized, high-impact color printing, including direct mail, short-run books and much more. The papers are treated during the manufacturing process, eliminating the need for special ink bonding agents to be added on press.
