A paper-based, recyclable alternative designed specifically for in-store signage, window graphics, and retail promotional displays, Monadnock Paper Mills, Inc has announced the launch of Ultrahide® PC 100 Blockout Poster. Engineered to replace PVC vinyl and other synthetic substrates commonly used in retail signage, Ultrahide is made from 100 percent post-consumer recycled fiber, is FSC-certified, processed chlorine-free, and California Proposition 65 compliant and compatible with mixed paper recycling streams, depending on inks, coatings, laminations, and local recycling guidelines. The substrate was developed to give retailers a more responsible material choice while maintaining the print quality and durability required for high visibility in-store campaigns.
Ultrahide PC 100 delivers 100 percent opacity to prevent show-through in double-sided applications. Its smooth, uncoated matte surface supports demanding graphics, accurate color reproduction, and high-resolution image quality across various wide-format printing technologies. To support large-scale retail campaigns and in-store rollouts, Ultrahide is available in rolls measuring up to 96.5 inches wide by 500 feet long, making it the only paper-based, non-PVC blockout poster substrate available at this width. The grand format enables seamless oversized graphics, such as double-wide windows for retail environments, while helping print providers optimize production efficiency and reduce trim waste.
