Kentmere is a great British paper but in 2016 is beginning to get gaps in its range. For example in hard grades and large sizes and even in the semi mat range as a whole the choices have been slowly reducing for a few years now.


We have decided to sell Foma's Czech-made grade paper to bridge these gaps. They produce lovely graded paper with neutral blacks and a high light sensitivity.


Available in Glossy or Semi Matte there is a choice of three grades soft (1), normal (3) and hard (4). It is a neutral-to-warm photo paper on an RC base and it stands out above all because of its good tonal range in the highlight areas. Like Kenthene, with its silver chlorobromide emulsion it also has developing agents incorporated in the emulsion, resulting in very short exposure and developing times.


Red or dark red dark room safelight should be used.

Andrew M. ★★★★★

I needed a larger format paper for my fiber-based prints and this 20x24 size works perfectly for those big negatives. The GD3 surface gives just enough texture to hold fine detail without being too reflective.

Sebastian ★★★★★

The semi-matte finish on this 20x24 paper gives just enough texture to hold fine detail without the glare of glossy. I've been waiting for a larger sheet in this surface, and the 10-sheet pack is perfect for testing. It handles the deep blacks I need without any bronzing.

Owen ★★★★☆

The semi-matte surface holds detail nicely without that harsh glare you get from glossy fiber papers. Slightly pricey for 10 sheets, but the 20x24 size works well for my larger contact prints.
