Tekra, A Division of EIS, Inc. has recently released a new series of digital media swatch books. Within the series, there are three books: Dura-Go®, for their line of Indigo print-ready films, ToneKote™, for their line of Toner print-ready films and JetView™, which covers their print-ready line of films for UV, latex, and solvent inkjet presses. These books provide an array of samples from their stocked lines, including their full stock lists and typical applications. “These books help our customers get a better idea of what they need when selecting the right material for a project. Being able to feel the texture or thickness of a substrate has tremendous value when making a selection,” states Rebecca Fuhrman, Market Development Manager of Digital Films for Tekra. These books are broken down into various categories, either by press type or by substrate type. Each section is tabbed and the materials are laid out in a ‘waterfall’ format so you can compare one film to another within that segment.

Dura-Go® contains sections:

• Rigid Vinyl

• Synthetics
• Hardcoated films

Each of the JetView™ sections contain polyester and polycarbonate items.
