Kodak and Brand Management Group （BMG） have teamed up to create a range of media, including photo papers and canvases for solvent, latex and UV-curable printers.

Among the new substrates is Kodak Canvas, which is available in both satin （18mil） and matte finishes （16mil） and comes in widths from 0.91m （30" ） to 1.63m （64"） widths. Also part of the new range of Kodak media is a glossy backlit film and a premium photo paper, the latter of which comes in both satin and glossy finishes.

Among the providers of the new product range will be UK distributor Colourgen, who will offer the portfolio through its network of authorised channel partners. "Kodak wide-format inkjet media are designed, qualified and manufactured to stringent performance and quality standards," suggests Melanie Esner, product marketing manager at Coulourgen. "The introduction of this portfolio takes the Kodak brand to a wider audience and addresses the need of the sign-making industry specifically, while still providing quality and economy."
