Teslin substrate offers the best of both worlds. It has the printability of paper combined with the durability and waterproof nature of synthetics. It can be die-cut, foil stamped, embossed, grommeted, glued and pasted. Its adaptability to a myriad of printing technologies and converting methods gives designers freedom never before possible with synthetics.
