PAPER + INK

All of the papers used at The Hunter Press are FSC-certified or 100% tree free.  

We work with a variety of uncoated stocks from Dutch Greyboard to luxurious 100% Cotton stock.  

We have listed our most popular stocks below but please do not hesitate to contact us if you have an alternative stock in mind.

​

​

SAUNDERS WATERFORD...

​

Saunders Waterford is our paper of choice for special occasion stationery.  100% Cotton and made in the UK, this stock is luxuriously soft to touch and completely tree free.   Perfect for the ultimate letterpress impression.

 

Saunders Waterford is available in two shades: High White (ivory) and White (cream).  There is also the option of a smooth finish or a textured finish.  Popular weights include 300gsm, 425gsm and 638gsm.

​

​

COLORPLAN...

 

Colorplan is a favourite at The Hunter Press.  Fantastic for a range of different uses and our go to stock for business stationery.

 

Colorplan is an uncoated FSC-certified stock produced in the UK and is available in a wide range of colours, textures and weights.

 

For something with a bit more impact, why not opt for duplex or triplex stock, achieved by sandwiching

2 or 3 colours together.

Letterpress Ink

I N K ...

​

We work with both rubber based inks and oil based inks and all are mixed by hand in the studio using the Uncoated Pantone Matching System.  If you have a colour in mind, send us a physical swatch or the Uncoated PMS number and we will match it for you as closely as possible. 

​

Please note that there may be a slight variance in ink colour throughout the press run and we cannot guarantee a 100% colour match.

- The more colours, the higher the cost.  Each colour requires it’s own plate and pass through the press.

 

- Light inks do not work well on darker stocks.  (check out our Foil Printing service instead)
