Mohawk Fine Papers, Cohoes, N.Y, USA, manufacturer of fine papers, envelopes and specialty substrates for commercial and digital printing, has been named the exclusive North American distributor for The Curious Collection & Conqueror lines of fine papers.

Mohawk will oversee all North American distribution, marketing and sales for these product lines beginning January 1, 2016, and will begin accepting orders for The Curious Collection & Conqueror on December 28, 2015.

"We are very pleased to be named as exclusive distributor for The Curious Collection & Conqueror in North America as a result of our strategic partnership with Arjowiggins Creative Papers. We know that materials matter, and we believe these grades uniquely complement our legacy collection of Mohawk fine papers. We look forward to the opportunity to grow sales significantly through our extensive network of merchant partners and through our strong relationships in the print, design and packaging communities," said Bart Robinson, Senior Vice President, Marketing, Mohawk.

The strategic alliance began earlier this year when Arjowiggins Creative Papers (Boulogne-Billancourt, France) granted Mohawk exclusive rights to manufacture, license, market and distribute Arjowiggins Creative Papers’ luxury packaging products, Delos and Butterfly, while Arjowiggins Creative Papers was granted exclusive rights to manufacture, market and distribute Mohawk Superfine with iTone® through select merchants worldwide. The decision to allow Mohawk exclusive rights to market and distribute The Curious Collection & Conqueror is an extension of this alliance.

The Curious Collection is comprised of seven beautiful and tactile grades of extraordinary papers for special projects that call for very saturated color and/or unusual textures.
