Holmen EPIC

About

This time it's EPIC

Holmen EPIC is a premium bright paper with high opacity that will carry your stories with vivid, evocative images. This wood-containing paper can replace a variety of other papers and works perfectly for magazines and brochures. Thanks to the strength and elasticity of the fresh fibres, we can make the paper more voluminous and you can choose a lighter grammage than you may be used to.

Sustainability

Magazine papers that minimise environmental impact

Holmen's paper is made from residual by-products of the wood industry and responsibly managed forests. Every part of the tree is used, ensuring that nothing goes to waste. We plant new trees with each forest cycle to secure growth and a thriving landscape. Our proximity to raw materials and efficient production at our mills give us one of the world's lowest carbon footprints.
