UPM Papers being on demand for its readers

“Magazines, catalogs, and advertisements printed on UPM Papers’ high-quality papers ensure excellent reader experience, which is our top priority. Our coated papers with a non-glossy finish are appreciated for great printing results, vivid imagery, and sustainability. In addition, these papers are high in bulk, which brings our customers cost advantages,” says Atte Lindström, director, Technical Customer Service & Product Management, UPM Communication Papers.
