The dictionary industry has been shrinking for a while now, mainly due to the abundance of new ways we can look things up (online, using Wikipedia, with Google Translate, etc.).

With many western languages comprising more than 600,000 words, there’s a good reason why dictionaries are such huge tomes!
Our thin paper is the best solution for helping publishers to reduce the amount of paper they need to make these dictionaries. Not only does this have a positive impact on the final product and make it easier to use, it’s also better for the environment.

Bolloré Thin Papers’ thin paper is developed with particular specifications in mind: it needs to be lightweight, high opacity and have low strike-through.
Every word is clear, and images are reproduced crisply in colour and black & white.
Our paper is available in a range of shades, so you can see the difference from page to page.
Permanent, FSC®-certified paper.
