Is TerraSlate Paper Water Resistant? No. It Is Completely Waterproof.
At TerraSlate, one of the most common questions we hear is, “Is your paper water resistant?” The answer is no. It is not water resistant. It is completely waterproof.
While it is easy to confuse the two terms, the difference between water resistant and waterproof matters. Every product we offer is fully waterproof. We did not settle for water resistance. We chose to develop something far more effective, because quality matters.
What Does Water Resistant Really Mean?
Water resistant paper is usually regular paper that has been coated with a thin layer of film. This film helps the paper handle a small amount of moisture, like a quick splash or a light drizzle. But once the film is scratched, cut, or worn away, the paper becomes completely vulnerable. It cannot handle full water exposure, and it certainly will not survive something like a dishwasher.
TerraSlate paper is different. It is built to handle wet environments from start to finish. You can soak it, scrub it, write on it in the rain, and even run it through a commercial dishwasher. It stays intact, it stays clean, and it stays readable. That is because our paper is waterproof all the way through, not just on the surface.
Surface Protection Is Not Enough
Water resistant paper only protects at the surface level. As soon as that outer film is damaged, your document is no longer protected. Even something as simple as writing on it or folding it can break that barrier. In contrast, TerraSlate paper is waterproof in every layer. If you cut it, every piece remains just as waterproof as before. Even tearing is difficult. Depending on the thickness you choose, it may not tear at all.
Why Choose Less Protection?
We understand why some people choose water resistant paper. It might appear to be more affordable, especially for temporary needs. But if you truly need something that will last in wet conditions, then why settle for anything less than full waterproofing?
TerraSlate is a trusted choice because our products are designed to perform in real-world conditions. Whether your document ends up in the kitchen, out in a storm, on a boat, or on a construction site, our waterproof paper holds up. And it is made quickly, with no need for lamination or extra steps.
