- Acid-Free Composition: Neutral pH levels meet archival quality standards. Stops yellowing or brittleness during long-term storage in road dust and heat.
- Multi-Medium Compatibility: Heavy 300gsm weight handles watercolor, gouache, and acrylic. Resists bleed-through when applying thick layers of pigment or water.
- Fine Grain Texture: Cold-pressed finish provides a balanced friction for brushes. Holds pigments in place without excessive pooling or rapid drying.
- Mould-Resistant Treatment: Anti-fungal properties integrated into the paper pulp. Prevents black spots from forming during damp weather cycles.
