Spring Grove-based Pixelle Specialty Solutions, a specialty paper company, recently launched a new product portfolio of premium ballot papers specifically for local, state and federal elections in the United States.
Pixelle’s ballot paper offers consistent post-processing for folding, scoring and perforation. The portfolio includes options for durable mail-in/absentee ballots, hand-marked ballots, and machine-readable ballots compatible with major voting systems.
Basis weights are between 80 pounds and 100 pounds and include durable, uncoated heavyweight stocks.
“Voting is the lifeblood of our democracy, and we take great pride in producing ballot papers which play a vital role in our election process,” Ross Bushnell, Pixelle president and CEO said. “Pixelle’s ballot papers are designed to meet the demands of high-volume elections, allowing for efficient and accurate vote tabulation.
“We drew from our extensive papermaking expertise and ability to develop highly engineered papers to offer solutions that are optimized for both in-person and absentee ballot formats,” Bushnell said. “And by manufacturing here in the U.S.A., we can ensure the highest standards of quality to satisfy the demanding requirements of U.S. elections.”
Pixelle Specialty Solutions has operations in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Wisconsin. It supplies an array of high-performance papers to customers worldwide for use in printers and converters.
