Photo Rag® Ultra Smooth 305gsm has a very smooth surface texture with a slightly higher white- point than Photo Rag® 308. It has an exceptional ink limit, resulting in impressive high saturation and Dmax.

Photo Rag® Baryta 315gsm is a 100% rag, OBA-free, natural- white paper with a barium sulfate finish. The coating gives the rag base a high-gloss finish, which enhances luminosity and color fidelity.

Daguerre Canvas 400gsm is a specially coated artist canvas made of poly-cotton with a tactile surface texture which makes it perfect for fine art photo printing. Its bright-white color provides clear, fresh color and contrasts for black and white reproductions.

Monet Canvas 410gsm is a genuine artist canvas made of 100% cotton with a special coating that is ideal for fine art printing. Its white-point is perfect for art reproduction, but also works well for high quality photo printing. This canvas offers detailed color and grey tones, as well as optimal depth to your artwork.
