Ilford is of course very well known from the
traditional darkroom days, but in recent years Ilford have become one
of the biggest players in the digital printing market as well - Ilford
Gallerie Smooth Pearl is the best selling inkjet paper in the world
today - and for good reason as it's an excellent day to day paper.
The
Ilford name has been synonymous with quality photographic papers for
many decades now, and the future looks even brighter. They have a
number of excellent resin coated papers and some interesting fine art
papers as well. We've selected a few of the best to carry here at Image
Science.
New in 2008: Ilford also have a
new paper in the fibre based area that is very interesting - Ilford
Galerie Fibre Silk. It's a wonderful paper - has slightly more sheen
than the Harman paper and seems particularly suited to toned black and
whites - a very high impact paper.
Please note all Ilford
papers are compatible with pigment ink and dye ink printers with the
exception of the Classic range - these papers have a swellable coating
that will not accept pigment inks. Read more about ink receptive
coatings here.
