SmartSolve 3pt Face Stock is a white, super calendared, water-soluble paper with excellent print characteristics. With a fast dispersion time of 5-10 seconds, it dissolves easily and completely in any water temperature. Readily Biodegradable, and water-soluble, this dissolving paper provides a zero waste alternative to traditional paper. It can be printed and can also be coated to create flexible films, such as our 3X15 or pressure sensitive label materials, all of which rapidly break down when exposed to water and agitation.
