Fusion Digital Paper Blog

With 2017 officially in the books, we wanted to thank you for giving us the opportunity to work with you the past year. With your help it was another excellent year for Fusion Digital Paper™. To kick start the new year, please give us a call to discuss your digital synthetic business and ways in which we can work together in 2018 to grow both our businesses. From the great products we have to service sheetfed production toner, HP Indigo, and inkjet equipment to our complimentary wide format roll products, Fusion Digital Paper™ has the most diverse substrate offering in the digital synthetic category. It allows us to continue to help customers get the most from their digital equipment investment, earn new business, and find niche market opportunities. Year after year, it is continually rewarding to hear about all the different end use applications customers have found for our substrates. Remember, all Fusion Digital Paper™ products are manufactured in the USA, and in fact, two years ago we made a major expansion to our Midwest manufacturing facility. This expansion, both in building size and new equipment – especially our massive Patriot coater – has positioned Fusion Digital Paper™ to continue as the

Once customers are home with their big catch, the pictures of the fish featured on the back are a friendly reminder of which fish they will be cooking up.  This will be especially helpful to the novice fisherman who went on the charter for a fishing adventure of a lifetime.  But the key to the promotion are the great

Finding new products and application solutions will help you develop new customers and differentiate yourself in today’s competitive marketplace.  After all, new business is the lifeblood of every company and one of the keys to long term growth and security. Such was the case for us with Fusion Extreme Permanent.  The solution that was needed was a cryogenic label that could be xerographically printed and dropped into liquid nitrogen without the label cracking and falling off, or the print becoming unreadable.  So we started with a very conformable fabric solution that can handle extreme temperatures and then we top coat it on our proprietary fabric coating equipment with our special polyurethane coating which is very toner receptive.  Next, we develop and coat an adhesive that can withstand temperatures down to -320°F.  Piece of cake, right? But the neat thing about Fusion Digital Paper™ products is that once they are introduced to the marketplace customers and end users find so many other ways to take advantage of the unique features and benefits of our digital substrates.
