Graffiti Polyester Paper

Graffiti Polyester Paper – Tough Synthetic Media for Real-World Use

Graffiti Polyester Paper is a waterproof, tear-resistant synthetic sheet designed for prints that have to survive more than a normal paper can handle. Instead of wrinkling, ripping, or falling apart when they get wet, Graffiti sheets hold up in rough conditions and high-touch environments. That makes them a great fit for menus, field manuals, safety tags, outdoor signage, and other pieces that get handled every day. This premium synthetic media is built on an extruded polyester base with a toner-receptive coating on both sides. As a result, toner bonds tightly to the surface and resists wipe-off, even on high-speed digital presses. Graffiti Polyester Paper is also engineered to run on a wide range of laser and digital toner press platforms, including equipment from HP Indigo, Xerox, Ricoh, Canon, and Konica Minolta, when used with the correct settings and testing for your press.

Key Features of Graffiti Polyester Paper

  • Waterproof and tear-resistant: Synthetic polyester construction keeps prints intact in wet, dirty, or high-traffic environments.
  • Durable, scuff-resistant surface: Designed to resist scuffs and abrasion so printed pieces keep a clean, professional look longer.
  • High heat resistance: Engineered for modern digital toner engines that run hot, with coatings that help prevent fuser issues and toner wipe-off.
  • Low static formulation: Coatings are designed to minimize static, which can improve press uptime and make post-press handling easier.
  • Cross-platform compatible: Suitable for many dry toner and liquid toner digital presses when used with proper synthetic media settings and testing.

Applications for Graffiti Polyester Paper

  • Menus and restaurant pieces: Create reusable menus, table toppers, and check presenters that stand up to spills, grease, and frequent handling.
  • Outdoor and industrial signage: Produce tags, safety signs, and instruction cards that need to handle moisture, dirt, and rough use.
  • Field manuals and reference guides: Print manuals and how-to guides for shops, warehouses, and job sites where standard paper would not last.
  • ID cards, tags, and labels: Use Graffiti sheets for durable ID pieces, equipment tags, and shelf labels that resist tearing and staining.
