Best Inkjet Paper
The TIPA awards
TIPA (Technical Image Press Association) www.tipa.com an organisation comprising many of the worlds's leading journals on photography and imaging produce an annual survey of the 'best products for the year' in Europe.
Incartek is proud to be associated with two companies which won the coveted TIPA awards:
"Best Independent Inkjet Paper: Innova Art FibaPrint Gloss
While inkjet colour photo printing has reached or even surpassed the quality of traditional silver halide photo prints in the last few years, black & white inkjet photo printing remained a challenge. Fibre based silver halide B&W prints are still considered to be superior in quality by many, but this may change with the introduction of Innova Art FibaGloss paper. When used with the latest matt black pigment inks, this paper shows an incredibly high DMax of 2.7; greater than traditional fibre-based silver halide papers. This allows for for extremely smooth tonal gradations and deep, rich shadows full of detail." - source TIPA
I make the point that there was no "OEM Inkjet Paper" award: so I guess the word "Independent" was there so as not to upset the big-advertising OEM's (Roll on Brand Freedom Day).
Incartek has been helping Innova develop its business in high quality papers - an area where margins are good and the market is growing At a recent photographic exhibition at the NEC in Birmingham (Focus), one company was selling FibaGloss at £29.95 for 25 sheets - and could not keep pace with demand!
