Midland Paper Launches Digital Edge Vinyl Banner for Wide-Format Inkjet Printers

WHEELING, Ill. — June 8, 2016 — Midland Specialty Paper & Film, a division of Midland Paper, has launched its extensive line of high-quality Digital Edge Banner Vinyl to the wide-format Inkjet marketplace. All Digital Edge Banner products have been rigorously tested and qualified for wide-format inkjet devices using eco solvent, solvent, latex and UV inks. Print Service Providers (PSP) looking to grow their business can use Digital Edge Banner for multiple end use applications ranging from indoor and outdoor signage, billboards and banners to point of purchase pop-up/roll-up displays, etc.

Printers can take advantage of an ultra-smooth print surface and neutral-white shade for sharp color reproduction. "Our Digital Edge Banner vinyl exhibits significant competitive advantages over other products in the market, including a unique inner scrim ply which has industry leading tear and tensile strength characteristics that dramatically reduce field failures for printers," says David Field, Sr. business manager, Inkjet Technologies for the Specialty Paper & Film Division of Midland Paper. "In addition, our Digital Edge Banner vinyl has a robust PVC construction to eliminate buckle under high heat conditions and our proprietary roll converting process eliminates frayed edges which has traditionally plagued printers for years on inferior banner vinyl."

Midland’s Digital Edge Banner line includes:

• Frontlit Banner
• Mesh Banner
• Backlit Banner
• Blockout Banner
• Scrimless PVC/PET/Blockout Banner

“We are very committed to the wide-format Inkjet market as evidenced by our new line of high-quality Digital Edge Banner print media. Simply put, our Digital Edge Banner media offers printers a consistent high quality banner vinyl that they can rely on job-to-job, month-to-month," relays Mike Ratcliff, Midland VP and General Manager for Midland’s Specialty Paper & Film Division. Midland’s inventory investment on Digital Edge Banner is complimented by a service platform which delivers customer orders from numerous Midland Paper warehouses on its own fleet of trucks.
