What is the durability of prints on 60gsm Jumbo Roll Sublimation Paper?
Jun 20, 2025
Hey there! As a supplier of 60gsm Jumbo Roll Sublimation Paper, I often get asked about the durability of prints on this type of paper. So, I thought I'd share some insights based on my experience and the latest research in the industry.
First off, let's talk about what sublimation printing is. Sublimation printing is a process where heat and pressure are used to transfer dye onto a substrate, like our 60gsm Jumbo Roll Sublimation Paper. The dye turns from a solid to a gas without going through a liquid phase, and then it bonds with the fibers of the paper or the material it's being transferred to. This creates a vibrant, long - lasting print.
Now, let's dig into the durability of prints on 60gsm Jumbo Roll Sublimation Paper. One of the key factors affecting durability is the quality of the paper itself. Our 60gsm paper is made with high - grade materials that are designed to hold the dye well. The 60gsm weight strikes a nice balance between being thin enough for easy handling and thick enough to absorb and retain the dye.
When it comes to colorfastness, the prints on our 60gsm Jumbo Roll Sublimation Paper are pretty impressive. Colorfastness refers to how well the colors in a print resist fading over time. The sublimation process ensures that the dye penetrates deep into the paper fibers, which helps to prevent color fading. In normal indoor conditions, the prints can maintain their vivid colors for a long time. For example, if you're using the paper to print wall art or photo prints, you can expect the colors to stay bright for years.
However, the durability can be affected by external factors. Exposure to sunlight is one of the biggest culprits. Ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun can break down the dye molecules, causing the colors to fade. If you're planning to display prints made with our 60gsm paper in direct sunlight, it's a good idea to use a UV - protective coating or frame the prints behind UV - blocking glass.
Another factor is humidity. High humidity can cause the paper to absorb moisture, which might affect the integrity of the print. In extremely humid environments, the paper could warp slightly, and in some cases, the dye might start to bleed. But if you store and display the prints in a well - ventilated area with moderate humidity levels, this shouldn't be a major issue.
Now, let's compare our 60gsm paper with other types of sublimation paper. For instance, the 70gsm Jumbo Roll Sublimation Paper. The 70gsm paper is a bit thicker, which means it can hold more dye. This might result in slightly more vibrant and long - lasting prints, especially for large - scale projects. However, it's also a bit more expensive and might be a bit stiffer to handle.


On the other hand, there are also Large Sublimation Paper options available. These are great for big - format printing, but the durability of the prints depends on the same factors as our 60gsm paper. The larger size might require more careful handling to ensure that the prints are evenly transferred and that the paper doesn't get damaged during the process.
The print durability also depends on the type of printer and ink used. Using high - quality sublimation inks is crucial. Low - quality inks might not bond well with the paper, which can lead to poor colorfastness and shorter print lifespans. Make sure you're using inks that are compatible with our 60gsm Jumbo Roll Sublimation Paper.
In terms of physical durability, our 60gsm paper is fairly robust. It can withstand normal handling without tearing or getting damaged easily. But if you're going to be folding or creasing the paper, it's best to do it gently to avoid cracking the print.
If you're in the business of printing on a large scale, our Sublimation Paper Roll in 60gsm is a great choice. The jumbo roll format allows for continuous printing, which is more efficient for high - volume jobs. And the durability of the prints means that your customers will be satisfied with the end result.
So, if you're looking for a reliable sublimation paper that offers good print durability, our 60gsm Jumbo Roll Sublimation Paper is definitely worth considering. Whether you're a professional printer, an artist, or someone who just wants to make some cool prints at home, our paper can meet your needs.
