Photo Books

SATIN 170GSM

Tone: Bright white with a light sheen
Feel: Silky smooth
Colour: Balances colour vibrancy and contrast well

LAY-FLAT LUSTRE 260GSM

Our top-shelf paper that works well with all kinds of photographs. This thicker black-hinged paper is stitched so the pages lay beautifully flat, making it the best choice for photos that span two pages. The surface of this paper is reminiscent of traditional lustre photo paper.

Be considerate when designing your book, to avoid placing important parts of a photograph across the gutter, if you are concerned that they will be  interrupted by the black hinge.

Recommended max pages: 100
Tone: Off white with a light opalescent sheen
Feel: A thicker paper with a similar texture and surface to photo paper
Colour: Beautifully balances vibrancy and contrast
Exceptions: Not available in Grand Landscape size
Ratings: Permanence certified for over 200 years.

LUSTRE 190GSM

This stock is brilliant for those who want beautifully rich colours and deep blacks, and like the look and feel of traditional photographic paper. Unlike Lay-flat Lustre, Lustre 190 produces a curved rather than flat gutter.

Recommended max pages: 150
Tone: Bright white with a light opalescent sheen
Feel: A heavier paper with a similar texture and surface to photo paper
Colour: Balances vibrancy and contrast, reproducing bright whites and rich blacks
Ratings: Permanence certified for over 200 years

EGGSHELL 148GSM

Feel: Uncoated matte paper with a subtle texture
Colour: Colours are softened and less saturated, while blacks are non-reflective

TEXT EMBOSS

For a distinguished introduction to your book or box, add a title to the centre. Think holiday destinations, dates, or the bridal couple's or birthday girl's names. Choose an emboss foil colour that will stand out or reflects the colour scheme of the pages. Text embossing is not available for Printed covers or Metallic and Pearl Lace in the Premium cover range.
