Onlineprinter, Germany, has added four new premium papers made by Gmund Papier, Germany, to its product range. These papers are exclusively available for customers of Onlineprinters. "We provide our 600,000 customers with printed products in long and short runs at affordable prices. Such a large clientele certainly has growing demand for special printings. We want to accommodate this demand by expanding our product assortment with exclusive products," said Julia Voigt, marketing director of Onlineprinters. The four new paper types have been available in the online shop since April 2017.
 
 

Combined under the umbrella term of "Onlineprinters Art Classics," all papers were named after style-defining art periods: "Renaissance," "Baroque," "Rococo," and "Modern Art." The illustrious names were inspired by the papers' special qualities. "Gmund has manufactured papers since 1829. Today, the paper manufacturer's product range comprises more than 100,000 paper creations. The papers of the "Onlineprinters Art Classics" collection are unique and have been designed exclusively for Onlineprinters with regard to their combination of color, paper weight, and surface texture," said Gabriele Bellendorf, marketing director of Gmund Papier, the trend-setter for finest papers "Made in Bavaria." The premium papers are available for business cards (4/0 and 4/4) in the formats 8.5 x 5.5 cm and 9.5 x 5.0 cm and for stationery in the formats A4, A5 and DL.

"Gmund Papier and Onlineprinters are connected by tradition, innovation, and a fascination for high-quality paper and professional printing. So the partnership was a natural fit. We are very pleased to make our papers available to even more customers thanks to the Onlineprinters Art Classics collection," Gabriele Bellendorf said about the new partnership. Onlineprinters expands its range of premium products with the addition of the Gmund papers. Since February 2017, the online print shop has also offered letterpress business cards. These business cards stand out by their relief-like imprint created by printing on traditional letterpress machines.

Gmund Papier has been synonymous with paper culture and the ecologically sustainable production of communication media made of natural paper since 1829. At its development and production site in Gmund am Tegernsee, the company designs customized solutions for sustainable brand images. Around 75% of the papers are exported. Gmund Papier is a family-owned enterprise managed by Florian Kohler in the fourth generation.
