Appvion & Kanzaki Announce Discontinuation of Thermal Paper Grades

February 9, 2022

Due to declining demand and issues with sourcing base papers, Appvion and Kanzaki Specialty Papers have decided to discontinue production of the following grades of thermal paper, effective immediately:

Appvion

  • Two-Sided Alpha 400 2.3
  • POS Plus 600 2.4
  • Alpha 820 2.4
  • Alpha Free 2.1

Kanzaki

  • NT4
  • P30523
  • P39023
  • P35524 2-Sided Black/Black

POS Supply Solutions has alternative grades for these paper grades, with the exception of the 2-sided thermal. Two-sided thermal paper is being discontinued worldwide from all the thermal paper mills with no replacement. That means that the 2-sided thermal paper we have in stock is all that’s left.

Be sure to stock up on our double-sided thermal paper rolls while you still can!

We will continue to provide our customers and partners with updates as they become available. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions, or need help selecting the right thermal paper for your application.
