Global Innovation for PHOTOPLUS Expo 2019: The Natural Line

For Hahnemühle, the leading trade fair for photography and imaging in the US, PhotoPlus Expo in New York, is all about FineArt papers, exclusive photo art and perfect prints. The new Natural Line is completely unique on the market and will see its world debut in New York.

The FineArt industry will see a new paper range that elevates FineArt printing to a new level. As the inventor and pioneer of genuine artist papers for inkjet printing, Hahnemühle fullfills the wish of many photographers to include FineArt papers made of 100% natural and unique fibres in the Digital FineArt Collection.

The new FineArt inkjet papers from the Natural Line are the next step in our continuous pursuit of sustainability and careful use of our resources.

About the Natural Line

The Natural Line has a special place in the Hahnemühle Digital FineArt Collection. It focuses on FineArt inkjet papers made from unique raw materials: bamboo, hemp and agave. The plants that provide the cellulose require minimal maintenance, grow quickly and don’t need any pesticides. Their rapid growth means that more cellulose can be produced on the same cropland than with other raw materials, and they also require much less water, helping to save valuable resources and protect the environment.

The new FineArt inkjet papers from the Natural Line are the next step in our continuous pursuit of sustainability and careful use of our resources.
