Mr Dietrich says a mixture of coated and uncoated paper can be the optimum solution.M-real's market surveys have found that direct mailings have a much higher response rate when they are printed on an ‘appropriate' paper.For uncoated papers this means that they have a particular relevance for topics such as nature, environment, natural products, food, beauty and recreation.Given the improvements in origination and four-colour printing, they are also equally at home in the reproduction of high quality four-colour images.
"Using an uncoated paper can help achieve the right overall mood," Mr Dietrich concludes.
