Hokushin paper is a high quality exhibition print paper created by enhancing Japanese traditional techniques with modern materials.
A special 4 layer structure consisting of pulp, adhesive, granules and resin combines modern materials according to a Japanese traditional technique to create the unique texture of controlled unevenness.
A top layer of acrylic resin coating is chosen to be the perfect printing surface.
