Elephant hide is a rugged bookbinding paper with a parchment grain which can be used as a book covering paper or for making certificates. It is impregnated and therefore scratch and abrasion resistant, dirt repellent, can be wiped clean (wet-strength paper), has limited expansion and shrinkage and is not sensitive to acid. In addition, it is tear resistant and wrinkle and fold resistant as well as colour-fast and lightfast. Elephant hide can be printed using all the classic printing processes. In addition, it is suitable for use with monochrome ink-jet printers and, up to 120 g/m², guaranteed for use on laser printers.The following is particularly good for writing on this paper: EDDING PAINT MARKER.
