Hahnemuhle Paper Names, was : papers

2001-07-31 by ruhrfoto@yahoo.de

To Tim and to whom it may concern:

This is a small excerpt from Antonis´ paper database compiled 
by Antonis  with some modifications by me (credits to Antonis).
I generally put the Hahnemühle Papers first, because the other 
names are the relabeled brands by the distributors/resellers.

Natural Hahnemühle papers have always been acid free, 
coatings have been a different matter until fall 2000 (ph value 
about 5, which means acidic). All coatings are now alkaline (ph 
8) since Hahnemühle completed coating by adding alkaline 
reserve in fall 2000 to keep the entire paper acid free.
Print characteristics did not change  -  as they claim.

Paper names:

Hahnemühle German Etching 310 (Inkjet genuine mould made):
Royal Plush, Frankfurt Art, Vienna, Conetech Orwell, Luminos 
Classic Velour, Lyson Fine Art Standard

Hahnemühle W. Turner 310 (100% Rag, mould made):
Lyson Cotton Rag

Hahnemühle Torchon 285 (Inkjet Watercolor Paper): 
Royal Riviera 285 gsm, Lyson Soft Fine Art, 
Lumijet Museum Parchment  

Hahnemühle Albrecht Durer 210 (Watercolor paper):
Royal Weave 210 gsm (Contech Chelsea??? don´t find my 
sample in the mement to proof)

Hahnemühle W. Turner 190 (100% Rag, mould made):
Royal Jazz, Wells River, Luminos Woven Fiber

Hahnemühle Photo Matte 170
Conetech Matte.

Hahnemühle Allegretto 160 (Inkjet Watercolor Paper)
Royal Sunrise, Conetech Tunbridge

Words in brackets are Hahnemühle comments, not mine.
Errors possible. Corrections and completion greatly 
appreceated by Antonis I suppose.
