Ilford launches Office and Create

Nov 19, 2007

Ilford has announced the UK launch of its Office and Create, two complementary products in its Inkjet Photo Paper Range aimed at the consumer retail market.

The new range has been designed in response to the growing numbers of enthusiastic amateur photographers keen to print their work. Ilford Office and Create were produced after several months of studying customer feedback to ascertain what was required from a consumer photo media.

The Ilford Create range includes 100% Rag Fine Art Matt Paper and a selection of pre-creased greetings cards with printable envelopes. Budding amateur photographers can put their creative skills to the test and create scrapbooks, calendars and collages using their favourite images. The media is double sided enabling users to write or print their own message inside. 

The Ilford Office range is aimed at home or office business users, and includes CD/DVD labels, business cards and double-sided matt paper. The CD/DVD labels have been designed for ease of use and facilitate the creation of professional looking labels. Images can be created in-house without having to outsource work to an arts and graphics agency. 

Ilford Office and Create are the result of extensive market research to establish what the customer really wants,” said Andrew Stewart, Sales and Marketing Director, Ilford Imaging Switzerland GmbH. “This range allows us to provide the photo enthusiast with a complete product line for a variety of creative applications.” 

The Ilford Inkjet Photo Paper Range is supported through www.ilford.com and is compatible with all good quality, including borderless, inkjet printers.  

Ilford Office and Create will be available through JP Distribution in major retail outlets across the UK.
