About Hahnemühle
Founded in 1584, Hahnemühle invented Digital FineArt paper more than 15 years ago and is still regarded as the pioneer of true artist papers for photography and reproductions. The papers – manufactured in the same paper factory for over 430 years – feature a special coating that has no effect on the paper’s haptic properties. This inkjet coating makes it possible to create prints with razor-sharp images in spectacular colours or black and white.
Internationally celebrated artists present their works on the Digital FineArt Collection’s more than 20 different papers. Prints on Hahnemühle papers enjoy an exceptional reputation among photographers and collectors alike. Made in Germany, the papers are prized in 80 countries around the world. Headquartered in Dassel in Germany’s South Lower Saxony, the company has branches in the UK, France, the US and China, and employs some 180 staff worldwide.
