Hahnemühle FineArt makes successful presentation at Paperworld 2012

The company's participation in the Paperworld trade show is a clear success - strong visitor turnout at the booth, positive feedback on the acquisition of Reflex and an award for the new Hahnemühle Sketch Diary.

Reactions to the takeover of Reflex Premium Papier GmbH by Hahnemühle FineArt and private investors have been positive across the sector. Meetings with media representatives and numerous one-to-one discussions with customers at the Paperworld reflected this general sentiment. "As a medium-sized company rooted in Germany, we have sent out a positive signal to our industry", said Michael Siekiera, managing Director of Hahnemühle FineArt GmbH and the recently established Reflex Premium Papier GmbH.

And the papermaker from the German federal state of Lower Saxony had yet another reason to be happy about its performance at the four-day trade show, ranking among the prize-winners of the 'Creative Impulse Innovation Award'. These prizes are presented annually by Messe Frankfurt and the German trade magazine HobbyArt. Hahnemühle's handy Sketch Diary won an award in the category "Creative Product of the Year". The notepad and sketchbook for artists and amateurs is the perfect everyday companion. It features lined pages for jotting down notes and blank pages for drawings. The slightly rough sketch paper invites users to make illustrations, take down their thoughts and record their memories. The books are available at retailers with a black or cream hardcover and comes in A6, A5 or A4 format.
