Hammermill brand takes on Great White

Great White MultiUse 20, from International Paper’s Great White brand, is now packaged and sold as Hammermill Great White Copy Paper. The paper will remain the same, recycled office paper with 30% post-consumer fibre as defined by the EPA. Hammermill Great White cartons and ream wrap have a new look, but they retain the Great White name, shark and recycled symbol. The paper features 84 brightness, 20 lb. basis weight and it’s acid-free for archival quality.
Neenah

The Eames Paper Collection is a new brand inspired by the legendary American designers Charles and Ray Eames, who created furniture, helped pioneer the graphic design industry, and produced short films, to name a few of the contributions they made to the design world. The new paper finishes connect to the texture, patterns and colours found in the Eames works in three palettes: The Architecture palette has a diffused finish and a rippled texture; the Painting palette is based on colours in their artwork; and the Furniture palette is inspired by the vibrant colours of the Eames plastic chairs. Neenah is also helping to preserve the historic Los Angeles home of the Eames with paper support and by creating a private watermark.
