Canson Infinity

Canson, from France, has been operating since 1557 - over 450 years of making some of the most exquisite and beloved art papers the world has known.

If you've ever been to an arts supply store, you'll have seen Canson, their Arches label, and legendary papers like BFK Rives on display - and these papers are used, and loved, by artists all over the world today.

Canson Inifinity is the relatively new digital paper range from Canson, and includes some very impressive fine art papers - including some very similar to their classic fine art papers and thus perfect for art reproduction work.

Key attributes of their fine art range are excellent print quality, lack of optical brighteners, and good quality control and packaging.

Our Favourites

  • Canson Infinity Platine Fibre Rag - Very consistent, excellent brightness and grey scale with no optical brighteners used, this has become a very popular 'darkroom' style digital paper. It says gloss on the box but is really more of a semi-gloss, however the finish is less aggressively sparkly than say Museo Silver Rag. We print with this in house and it's very popular.
  • Canson Infinity Baryta Photographique 310gsm - Similar to Platine, but smoother and glossier - a very sharp crisp paper similar to classic darkroom fibre based gloss papers.
  • Canson Infinity Edition Etching Rag 310gsm - the most popular of Canson's art papers, a classic etching style paper.
  • PrintMaKing Rag (BFK Rives) - this paper mimics the traditional papers used in printmaking and has a beautiful velvety texture to it. It is great to use for printing illustrations and other art works.

Thanks for the quick turnaround, I was able to make a couple of prints with the new profile last night. I noticed subtle differences in colour and a more noticeable difference in the neutrality of grayscale prints. Overall a more accurate representation of what I was seeing on screen in comparison to what was provided by the manufacturer.
