Description
Braillon, also known as thermoform paper or swell paper, is designed for producing tactile materials such as maps, charts, diagrams, and educational illustrations. The paper is coated with a microcapsule layer that reacts to heat. When printed with black ink and passed through a thermal fuser or heater, the black areas absorb heat and swell, creating raised surfaces that can be felt by touch.
It is widely used in schools, accessibility centers, and organizations that support people with visual impairments. Braillon paper is durable, lightweight, and compatible with tactile image-making machines, making it an essential tool for accessible education and inclusive communication.
