Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

 
Appleton Coated (Combined Locks, Wis., USA) announced this week that it is discontinuing the Utopia One (U1) paper line as an inventory-supported stocking grade. Existing inventory of Utopia One is being sold until depleted and stock will not be replenished. Effective with this announcement, U1 becomes a making-only grade with requisite minimum and trim requirements.

It should be noted that Appleton Coated is not discontinuing Utopia U1X® – the brightest Utopia that the company makes. U1X is FSC certified and also features 20% post-consumer recovered fiber and Green-E® Green Power – all of these features are standard, with no upcharge.

Key Points:
  • Utopia One is a commercial shade match to Utopia Premium * Utopia Premium can be a good substitute for U1 customers
  • The discontinued inventory will be sold until stocks are depleted
  • Manufacturing orders will be considered – 60,000 lb. minimum per basis weight and finish Consult a mill for lead times and trim details.
