Bulk offset paper:
Designed specifically for editing, this type of paper has exceptional volume, giving your work thickness and lightness. They look rougher than offset or coated papers and have a high ink absorption capacity. Due to this, it is generally recommended for black text. The printing of photos or illustrations remains possible when one wants to obtain a brilliant rendering, with the older and traditional aspect; it is then recommended to choose the premium categories with higher gsm.
The bulk papers come in several shades and quality levels: with wood and cream, with slight traces of wood and natural white or ivory hues, with no trace of wood.

Very good opacity and nice volume. Without any trace of wood, they will keep their colors and their qualities over the years.
