Paper supplier GF Smith has partnered with Gmund, a paper mill based in the Bavarian Alps, in an arrangement that will see GF Smith serve as the sole supplier of Gmund’s paper collections in the United Kingdom.

By bringing the entire Gmund collection to the UK, the companies aim to offer an ‘unparalleled’ range of premium paper options to creatives, designers and printers throughout the territory. As a result of the partnership, GF Smith will expand its portfolio of creative papers, including the full Gmund Colours range.

Florian Kohler, CEO of Gmund, commented, ‘GF Smith’s reputation for excellence and their deep connection with the UK’s creative community make them the ideal partner for Gmund. We look forward to seeing our papers brought to life in extraordinary ways through this partnership.’

GF Smith added that the partnership ensures that UK-based customers can benefit from seamless access to Gmund’s entire paper range, supported by GF Smith’s ‘outstanding’ customer service, expertise and creative network. Designers, printers and brands can expect new opportunities for creative expression and premium paper solutions to elevate their work, the company added.

‘We are thrilled to partner exclusively with Gmund and bring their outstanding papers to the UK market in full,’ said Gareth Sheekey, managing director of GF Smith. ‘This collaboration perfectly aligns with our mission to champion creativity in the world of design and print. Together, we will provide unparalleled choice and inspiration for our customers.’
