Takeo Pachica

Takeo Pachica is an extremely technical paper: in addition to its luxurious and very soft feel, it also has a unique special property: when heat-stamping, the embossed area of the paper becomes transparent. 

It is also one of the most bulky papers: Many Takeo papers, such as Pachica, are created in partnership with designers, and this paper is a wonderful example of Takeo's efforts to meet the needs of designers around the world. 

This paper is a dream for special letterpress effects!
