Hugely positive response to the new Innova Art products on show at Photokina 2016, Cologne, Germany, 20-25 September 2016. We promised, didn’t we, that there would be nice surprises in store for visitors to the Innova Art stand at Photokina 2016, Cologne, Germany, 20-25 September? Well, we got it right – our delighted customers said so. We raised the curtain on the new Editions range – comprising five archival cotton-based papers and one baryta paper specially formulated for digital printing – and it proved an instant hit. The response of NyghtFalcon, USA, which had put the two new Fabriano papers, Fabriano Artistico Watercolour Rag 310gsm (IFA 108) and Fabriano Printmaking Rag 310gsm (IFA 107), through their paces just prior to the show, was typical: “As you can imagine, like most photographers, we are hesitant to change the way we print. Change is time-consuming and experimentation rarely yields better results. Well, I have to tell you that, in this case, we have produced some of the finest prints we have ever made – even without ICC profiles specific to these papers. We found the colour rendering most impressive, adhesion of the ink to the paper was phenomenal, the detail breathtaking, and we love the textured surface. Even our concerns about the thickness of the paper proved without merit. Going forward, these are the papers we will use for all our fine art prints.” “Some of the finest prints we have ever made”... clearly, a change to Innova Art products can prove revelatory. Our alluring addition to the GOframe range, Hex Frame – the hexagonal framing system with added ‘six appeal’ – proved a winner, and the Pinchbook™ range – making deluxe portfolios the simplest of [...]

It’s time we came clean: Innova Art makes the world’s best Photo Art media. We don’t need to tell you that –you’ll have seen the reviews: “I have never been so satisfied with the way my final images look and feel, nor how well the care and effort I put in is reflected in what appears on the [FibaPrint Warm Cotton Gloss] paper. There’s no better place for your best images to end up.” – Daniel Demolder, Amateur Photographer magazine. “This was my first experience with Innova Art papers. I'm a real paper fiend, and I love trying out new ink jet papers. I've used everything from the classic Hahnemühle and Ilford papers, to Moab, Breathing Color, Harman, and others. Innova makes a wonderful paper, great texture, great tone. I intend to continue trying out their other papers.” – John Rista, Photographer, USA “If I could sit down and design a paper FibaPrint Gloss would be it.” –David Osborn, Photographer, UK “[FibaPrint Ultra Smooth Gloss is] the miracle I’ve been waiting for. With deeper blacks than any silver paper left on the market, for me this paper represents a rebirth of the darkroom.” – Douglas Menuez, Photographer, USA Choosing Innova Photo Art media has never been a difficult choice; it’s clearly the best bet. Now, to spell it out even more clearly than before, we’ve refreshed and revamped the range. We’ve given the Photo Art range a new home on our website, where you’ll find full product descriptions, and downloadable data sheets and ICC profiles at the click of a mouse. The range comprises six FibaPrint® papers, ranging from the acclaimed 300gsm White Gloss (f-type) to the 325gsm FibaPrint® Ultra Smooth Gloss. It also brings [...]
