Re: Kirkland Glossy - USA

2007-04-13 by djon43

The "Swiss" paper seems to be/have been made in a formerly-Ilford
factory, now owned by a huge Japanese paper manufacturer which heavily
investing in SE-Asian plants. Think bamboo, grass? Mysterious sources
say inkjet paper advances will soon not involve coatings and will be
easily produced by licensed non-photo paper factories, offering
improved image characteristics. Could be BS :-)
