"Ready to Print" SBS Heavyweight Stock

Instead, a growing number of commercial printers and converters are finding that printing directly onto 30-48+ point heavyweight SBS board can save approximately $0.25 cents per sheet while reducing delivery time by up to a week. This translates to $1,500 in savings on a 6,000 sheet average job.

“With more customers relying on Just-In-Time inventory and delivery, we wanted a faster, more cost effective process than shipping thin SBS sheets to a mounter to create a thicker SBS product,” says Rick Chassen, Purchasing Manager for Unimac Graphics, a Carlstadt, N.J.-based diversified graphics communications company.
