Hi

I just noticed that Freestyle is carrying this "new" B&W paper. It said was made in UK, so I guess it might be re-branded Kentmere? It seems it is cheaper than both Kentmere and Foma in same configs. Anyone has any experience with it?

Made in the UK - Harman.

One stop faster than other papers - Kentmere.

Medium weight - Kentmere.

Kentmere is available in glossy or "fine lustre". Premier is available in glossy or "pearl".

'Tis most likely a duck, I say.

Unless of course it is Harman cutting and packaging rolls that are coated elsewhere.

That brings up an interesting question: are "pass-through" products only identified as originating from the confectioning Country?

It would seem that if the paper is coated, say in China and confectioned in the UK, would it be "legal" to be labeled as "made in the UK"?

"Probably", and "It depends" are likely to both be correct answers.
