Our 2011 price list is still current. It is available either
as a printed version or as a pdf. Paper prices are again subject to
price pressure and we will be producing a new list early in the new
year. There will be significant increases in some products, in some
cases as much as 18% which is due mainly to increases in the price of
cotton and increases in energy costs. We have again
increased the range of papers and boards that we stock. New products
available from stock include Banks Cream, Fabriano White Ecological
Paper, MG Poster, Foam Centred Board, Greyboard in 750 and 1000 microns,
