Hahnemuhle Press Release

Genuine Fine Art Baryta Papers from Hahnemuhle  

Woodstock, IL July 09, 2007 Hahnemuhle FineArt announces the launch of digital Fine Art Baryta paper for Autumn 2007. As a traditional artist’s paper the “FineArt Baryta 325” will combine an ultra smooth surface with an original Baryta finish. The digital Baryta paper has Hahnemuhle’s unique “touch and feel” experience and is a premium replacement for traditional Baryta papers from analogue laboratories. The new paper contains barium sulfate in the coating that enhances the typical reflecting gloss, high Dmax, large color gamut and sharp definition of a Baryta paper.

The bright white “FineArt Baryta 325” is currently in the Beta testing phase and is wowing the first photographers to use it - particularly for black and white prints due to a high Dmax, fine grey tones and an outstanding glossy finish. It perfectly complements Hahnemuhle’s TIPA award winning product portfolio: in addition to matte, semi-glossy and pearl papers the company will then be able to offer a high gloss paper on a genuine artist paper basis. The 22nd paper quality from the Hahnemuhle Digital FineArt Collection is another paper that epitomizes the constant quality and high archivability of the premium papers from the artist’s paper mill based in Dassel, Germany.

Hahnemuhle will showcase first samples of “FineArt Baryta 325”, made from 100% alpha cellulose with an ultra smooth surface and a grammage of 325gsm, at upcoming international photo shows: Sonimagphoto in Barcelona, Salon de la Photo in Paris, Imaging Expo in Shanghai and PhotoPlus International in New York. Market launch is set for Autumn 2007.

The Hahnemuhle paper mill has been producing quality artist’s papers for over 420 years. Since its founding in 1584 they have developed experience and a tradition of excellence in art materials that is now been brought to the digital age, and fine art Inkjet printing. The German based company whose headquarters are in Dassel, has 150 employees worldwide.
