Hahnemuhle

Only a few companies can proudly look back on such a long, uninterrupted tradition. Since 1584, Hahnemühle’s papermakers have been proving that they superbly master the old craft: uniquely beautiful papers are created from pure spring water and first-class pulps, the same today as over 400 years ago. In the beginning hand-made vat papers were made, and today traditional recipes are still used to make papers which enthuse painters, graphic artists, illustrators, bookbinders and, more recently an increasing number of photographers. Since 1886, the artists’ paper factory in the south of Lower Saxony has taken the name Hahnemühle. Creative people worldwide associate this name with the very highest paper qualities.
