Uncoated paper is extremely popular in the printing industry. It is valued for its versatility, durability and aesthetic matt appearance. At Books Factory, we use it wherever elegance and a natural print appearance are the priority.
Uncoated paper — characteristics
The popularity of printing on uncoated paper results primarily from the paper’s properties. It is matt and uncoated, which allows it to diffuse light very effectively. Text printed on it remains easy to read even under intense lighting conditions.
Book printing on uncoated paper is particularly comfortable from the reader’s perspective, as reading for extended periods does not strain the eyes. Another advantage of uncoated paper is its fibre structure. This allows the printing ink to penetrate evenly into the paper, ensuring sharp text contours and very good graphic reproduction.
What is uncoated paper used for?
At Books Factory, our digital printing company uses uncoated paper for a wide variety of projects. It is most commonly used for printing:
-
books, especially non-fiction, guides and fiction,
-
notebooks and exercise books,
-
informational catalogues and promotional brochures,
-
training materials,
-
reports and academic publications.
Thanks to its natural appearance and functionality, uncoated paper is preferred by publishers who prioritise durability and excellent text readability.
