Expert analysis

What you should know

KODAK Water-Resistant Poly Poster Matte is a matte polypropylene film at 8 mil and 130 gsm. Kodak’s claim for it is stated in terms of printers rather than chemistries: this versatile product produces deeply saturated, long-lasting prints when created with HP, Encad and Epson inks. At 130 gsm it is a light film, which makes it easy to hang and ship — the trade-off being that it is a poster material rather than a structural banner stock.

What KODAK Water-Resistant Poly Poster Matte (8 Mil) is used for

Indoor and outdoor signage
Tradeshow displays
Floor graphics, with an acceptable laminate
Theatre backdrops
Shop-front displays

The floor graphics entry carries Kodak’s own qualifier and it should be kept: this material is only a floor graphic when an acceptable laminate is applied over it. Unlaminated, it is not a walking surface.

Ink compatibility

No ink-chemistry rating is on file for this film. Kodak’s compatibility statement names printer brands — HP, Encad and Epson — rather than dye, pigment, latex, solvent or UV chemistries, and we have not translated brand names into a chemistry rating, because doing so would be a guess. If you need a confirmed chemistry rating before ordering, ask us and we will source it from Kodak.

Working with it

Kodak’s protection guidance covers several routes: mounting under glass, laminating, clear coating or photographic sleeves all help image durability and stability. Where a laminate is used, pressure-sensitive types give the best bond and hand application is not recommended. Brightness is 90 and whiteness 86 CIE, a warm white rather than a bright display white. Rolls run 36 to 42 inches wide on 2-inch cores.

Full technical detail

Printers this media fits

Checked against every wide-format printer we track: 110 can run it — Epson 50 · HP 30 · Canon 30. Compatibility is resolved from the printer’s published media handling (roll width, core size and the roll diameter the spindle holds), not from a marketing list.

The list starts from the maker’s own ink ratings for this media — rated BEST for Pigment; GOOD for UV ink. A printer only appears here if its ink chemistry is one of those.
