Rainbow 80# ®
RAINBOW® 80# is a standard 80 lb cover material commonly used for full covers, sides, spines, and endleaf applications in hardcover book production. It is also used as a general-purpose wrap for packaging across a range of industries, including wine and spirits, fragrance, fashion, apparel, and food. The material provides added thickness compared to RAINBOW® 70 and is compatible with common printing methods such as screen, UV, and offset printing. It can also be decorated with blind or foil stamping. For projects requiring a smoother surface, stronger performance, and a more premium finished result, customers may want to consider Greenleaf Paper as an enhanced alternative.
