Antalis adds Katz Display Board to its portfolio

Katz Display Board has been added to the Antalis media offering.

Paul Neale, product manager at Antalis, said: “Sourcing sustainable, environmentally-friendly products for our customers is a high priority for us and we’re delighted to bring Katz into our sustainable portfolio. It’s a great product that we have already supplied for use in retail displays for some leading names on the high street.” Katz is an environmentally friendly alternative to the use of PVC and PUR foam boards for retail and POS sectors and can be used with UV digital, screen and flatbed latex print technologies. A laminated display board with a smooth white surface, Katz has a core of natural ground wood pulp with coated paper liners applied either side with natural starch acting as the adhesive. It is manufactured in the Black Forest area of Germany using locally sourced PEFC-certified wood and environmentally friendly production techniques that include no bleaching or chemical processing. The factory employs a state-of-the-art heat recovery system and two in-house hydro plants to maximise energy efficiency along with a closed water loop to conserve natural resources. Because it is 100% fibre-based, Katz can be recycled in normal waste-paper streams. If it were to end up in landfill, it takes little more than a year to break down. Katz Display Board in 3mm and 5mm options and standard 2440 x 1220mm is available from Antalis for next day delivery. Bespoke sizes, up to 2650 x 1500mm, are available to order.
