A Healthy Outlook
The first opportunity to put the stocks to use came when the hospital's paramedics requested a reference book that could be taken into the field. The first run of books only used the stocks as the cover, but they are now printed entirely on Never Tear stocks.
The books were an immediate hit. The sheets proved to be resistant to damage from almost any liquid, except acetone. And the stocks' strength prevents rips, despite the rigors of paramedic work.
