London – Leading paper manufacturer Fedrigoni is excited to announce the Sirio Color swatch book, encompassing the company’s broadest range of pulp-dyed papers to date. Across 30 bold and vibrant colours, including 4 brand new shades and a new black, the range offers countless opportunities for creative transformation, from packaging and inserts, to book covers and art installations.

The FSC® certified Sirio Color range of uncoated papers and boards is available in 3 finishes: smooth, rough and denim embossed. The collection presents 30 bright and intense colours for creatives to take in dynamic directions, including 4 brand new shades: Jasmine, Milkshake, Flamingo and Royal Green. The range also features Sirio Color Black, a carbon-free compilation of Fedrigoni’s previous black papers, Sirio Black/Black and Sirio Color Nero.

Spanning from 80 to 700 g/m2, the collection is adaptable for a broad range of creative expressions, from lightweight leaflets to more robust packaging. Completely biodegradable and recyclable, the Sirio Color range offers creatives an environmentally friendly alternative, and its pulp coloured formation offers better light resistance.

Fedrigoni’s new swatch book includes the Sirio Color Rough papers for the first time, whose textured surfaces inject a sense of tactility and craft into the collection. In the rough version there are 11 colours available (including all 4 new shades), whereas the denim embossed range offers 21 shades, with all 30 colours present in the smooth format. The swatch book also features Sirio Black/White and Sirio White/White.

Further Sirio options available include papers and boards for Digital for Dry Toner, Digital for HP Indigo, Stucco and Envelopes.

Ian Braithwaite, Commercial Manager at Fedrigoni UK, commented: “The new Sirio Color swatch book is Fedrigoni’s most universal yet. From our traditional smooth and embossed papers, to our latest rough range, there is a paper for every creative avenue. Each paper can be used with all major printing technologies (typesetting, offset, emboss, hot foil stamping, thermography and screen printing) as well as packaging processes (cutting, die-cutting, creasing, folding and gluing). The opportunities are limitless.”

Justine Fox, Co-Founder of Calzada Fox, commented: "As a colour consultancy, we understand that colour is at the heart of our experience, acting as a stimulus for our emotions and a powerful tool for transformation. Fedrigoni’s new Sirio Color shades truly encapsulate the evocative power of colour. Where Jasmine’s delicate pink tint inspires a subtle sense of quietly confident craftsmanship, warmth radiates from the creamy yellow undertones in Milkshake, opening channels of positivity. Bursting with succulence and ripeness, Flamingo’s inclusive orange-pink mix activates and energises the message, while Royal Green’s herbal depth connects this green to natural innovation and mindful products."
