The Hahnemuehle paper mill has been producing quality mould made artists papers for over 415 years. Since its founding in 1584 they have developed experience and a tradition of excellence in art materials that have now been brought to the digital age. Their rich history with traditional artists and close involvement with inkjet printer manufacturers have allowed Hahnemühle to develop a series of watercolour papers specifically engineered and coated for modern inkjet printing. The result is the Hahnemuehle collection of Digital Fine Art papers.
Designed for discerning users, these grades of Digital Fine Art paper can be used to create limited editions, giclees, original digital art, traditional output, photographic and historic photographs on a choice of paper textures, multiple colours and a huge variety of sheet sizes and weights. The Hahnemuehle papers provide a colour intensity and crispness not possible with non coated art papers.
The Hahnemuehle collection is manufactured in the traditional mould-made and fourdrinier techniques that artists value for its unique rich look, feel and texture. No longer does the digital artist have to compromise on paper quality when producing or reproducing their work digitally. Surface coating in combination with the traditional paper base and the right inks will produce sharp, high resolution output with the warmth and quality of the hand generated artwork. In many cases it is difficult to identify the original with the copy.
The main advantage of a coated paper is that the ink doesn't sink into the paper the coating allows it to sit on the surface so you don't get ink bleed and you keep the colour and resolution quality.
Hahnemuehle Digital Fine Art papers have been extensively tested with various manufacturers ink sets for UV stability by Wilhelm Imaging Research, Inc in the USA and conform to the Blue wall scale of 6 or above in the UK on their testing procedure requirements. Using the Hahnemuehle digital fine art papers means that the artist has more control over the printing process, being able to edit colours and sizes of the printed output as they go along, it also means they can do shorter print runs as and when needed and therefore are not committed to the same number of prints or initial output costs that have to be made with more traditional print processes such as offset litho.
The name Hahnemuehle means 'The Hens Mill' and originates from the humble land the company had founded their business on.
Hahnemuehle is reportedly pronounced "Honey muller".
On this web site we use the alternative spelling for Hahnemühle replacing the umlaut with an e after the umlaut vowel.
