Product description

Holmen EPIC is an uncoated wood-containing paper based on fresh wood fibres. It has a higher bulk compared to paper made from recovered fibres, and is more voluminous thanks to the strength and elasticity of the fresh fibres. EPIC provides excellent whiteness, high opacity, and outstanding image reproduction, making it the perfect choice for magazines and direct mail.
