New Green Paper Cuts Mailing Costs

Xerox has unveiled a digital printing paper that reportedly uses half as many trees as traditional paper, while lowering the cost to mail printed material.

Xerox High Yield Business Paper is a mechanical fiber paper that reportedly overcomes operational problems, such as curling and dust. It uses 90 percent of the tree versus only 45 percent being used to create traditional digital printing paper, it requires less water and chemicals and it is produced in a plant using hydroelectricity to partially power the pulping process.

The lighter weight of High Yield Business Paper makes it ideal for transactional printers and direct mail centers seeking to reduce shipping costs.
