Manufactured using only alpha cellulose, it contains absolutely no lignin which might result in yellowing of the paper over time.
This naturally white paper, with no optical brightness additives, acid-free and permanent, meets all the requirements of the iso 9706 standard.

An all-round paper it is suitable for all dry techniques and certain wet techniques such as ink and gouache.
