NorSC Lite is the result of a 28 million EUR investment in state of the art equipment, following more than 10 years R&D. NorSC Lite combines print quality with sustainable production and environmental advantages for publishers and retailers. Lower basis weight reduces freight loads, emissions and costs, helping customers reach their environmental goals.
