NEW & AWARD WINNING PAPER FROM PERMAJET

With its Portrait White 285gsm just awarded Best Professional Paper at The Societies Convention, and an exciting new Titanium Gloss 300gsm paper showcased at The Photography Show Stand G101, photo specialists will want to grab both to super-charge spring sales…

Inkjet photo paper specialist PermaJet is enjoying a great start to the new decade. Not only has it already picked up an award for Best Professional Photo Paper for its Portrait White 285gsm from The Societies (PermaJet’s Colin Hulley receiving the award from Ben Jones, as shown), but it will also be hitting the floor of The Photography Show this year with a brand new offering – and possible future award winner – in Titanium Gloss 300gsm.

Incredibly, this year is the 7th time PermaJet’s media has taken the top paper award at The Societies’ Convention & Trade Show – something that’s all the sweeter because the awards are based on votes from its photographer members. In previous years the same award has gone to the manufacturer’s Oyster 271 no fewer than three times, while Titanium Lustre 280, FB Gold Silk 315 and Photo Lustre 310 have made up the other winners.

“Wining any award is a great achievement, but to have been recognised for the 7th year is an absolute pleasure,” acknowledges PermaJet’s Colin Hulley. “Thank you to everyone who voted for PermaJet Portrait White as Best Professional Paper.”

For those not already up-to-speed, PermaJet White 285 is an acid free fine art paper described as possessing a subtle texture and a clean white base, thereby enabling the detail and colours of any image to really pop. Its high ‘D-max’ (maximum density) value and wide colour gamut also make it suitable for a variety of complex skin tones, detailed shadows and highlights, plus the smooth tonal graduations required for monochrome work. In short, it’s pitched as the perfect choice for photographers seeking a paper with a high quality look and feel.

While stocking PermaJet’s Portrait White 285gsm is a no brainer, so too is taking delivery of its brand new Titanium Gloss 300gsm paper. Joining the Digital Photo range, it’s described as a sister product to the original Titanium Lustre metallic paper.

Though fresh to market, Titanium Gloss is already being used by the world renowned Duffy Archive – which upholds the legacy of the legendary portrait photographer Brian Duffy.

The Archive’s Chris Duffy tells us: “The Duffy Archive were seeking a unique paper to launch their David Bowie Limited Edition Silver Print Collection and the PermaJet Titanium Gloss paper was the perfect solution. The luminosity and vibrancy gave our iconic images sharpness, while not overpowering them. We were thrilled with the result.”

Designed for use with dye and pigment inkjet systems, this paper’s chief appeal is obviously its metallic glossy appearance, along with what’s claimed as a great tonal range, wide colour gamut and a high D-max rating. It should therefore work extremely well with images that have vibrant colours, deep blacks and shiny white/silver areas. PermaJet believes the instant photographers see and feel this media they’ll recognise that it is a true quality glossy paper with a real difference. It’s available now in a choice of A4, A3, A3+ or A2 sheets, or as roll media measuring 17-inches x 30 metres, 24-inches x 30m, 44-inches x 30m or 60-inches x 30m.

To talk to the PermaJet team and get to grips with all of the above, simply head to Stand G101 at ‘TPS’. Even if you’re not visiting the show, you can still get in touch direct NOW to place an order via sales@permajet.com or via 01789 739200.
