Founded in 1557, Canson has been a leading paper mill for centuries. Many notable artists have used Canson’s paper including Picasso, Warhol, Miro and Van Gogh.
Canson has its own fine art and photo inkjet papers under the Canson Infinity brand, which is a market leader in art production and photography paper.
We have recently expanded our range of Canson Infinity products and now have a definitive range of excellent Canson Infinity products that may be of interest for all types of requirements.
The new Canson Infinity Arches® range has some great paper products!

Arches Aquarelle Rag
Some would consider this similar to watercolour paper. However, unlike many other similar textured papers, the Arches Aquarelle Rag still gives excellent colour rendition, deep blacks and pure whites. Very similar to the Canson Infinity Aquarelle Rag, the Arches Aquarelle Rag has a much whiter tone than the previous version.

For the whole Arches® range what is exceptional is the white tone achieved on a non-glossy paper, there aren’t many other products like this. And this, therefore, allows for its excellent colour rendition, deep blacks and pure whites, that often just can’t be achieved to the same degree in other non-glossy papers.
Canson Infinity Baryta Photographique
The Canson Infinity Baryta Photographique may be a familiar product. It offers the original darkroom Baryta print’s look and aesthetic whilst maintaining maximum longevity. It gives a museum-grade photo paper with excellent black density and great image sharpness which makes it ideal for black and white photography. We still stock this product.

However, the new Canson Infinity Baryta Photographique II is a new addition to our range and provides some additional features. That is, Canson has reduced the content of optical brightener agents. This allows for greater longevity in the colour of the photography and greater consistency in the colours under different lighting. Canson has also been able to use 100% cotton in the Canson Infinity Baryta Photographique II, rather than alpha-cellulose. The Canson Infinity Baryta Photographique II is available in a Satin and Matte surface finish. These are some great developments in what was already a top-end paper.

Canson Infinity Baryta Prestige II
Another new update to a familiar product is the Canson Infinity Baryta Prestige II, which has the benefits of the previous Canson Infinity Baryta Prestige. However, there are no optical brightening agents. This means that they have achieved a high white paper with no optical brightening agents, for the first time creating greater longevity and less deterioration. It is still a rigid, extra smooth and secure feeling paper, with a wide range of tones that allow for great detail. This makes it suited for dark and night photography because of its high D-max density. It is unique for a paper to have a high D-max and no optical brighteners! There is a coating of barium sulphate which further creates an aesthetic of traditional darkroom paper. The Canson Infinity Baryta Prestige II does not compromise and is a fantastic paper for a wide range of uses.
