The Hahnemühle Sugar Cane watercolor pad is an outstanding artist paper from Hahnemühle's innovative Natural Line - sustainably produced, functionally convincing and aesthetically sophisticated. The natural white, warm-toned paper with a basis weight of 290 g/m² consists of 70% sugar cane fibers (bagasse), a rapidly renewable by-product of sugar production, and 30% cotton fibers, which are vegetable waste from the textile industry.
This unusual combination of materials unites the strength of sugar cane fibers with the supple softness of cotton, providing a resilient yet velvety surface. The matt, cold-pressed structure of the paper is clearly pronounced and invites creative development with watercolor, gouache and all wet-on-wet techniques. Colors adhere excellently, can be spread evenly and retain their brilliance. At the same time, the paper impresses with its high water absorption capacity without curling or tearing - ideal for sophisticated color gradients, glazes or special effects such as salt or water droplets.
With its resource-saving production, the Sugar Cane watercolor block offers a sustainable and efficient alternative for anyone who values environmental awareness and the highest quality. Whether filigree lines with fineliner or bright areas of color - this paper masters every challenge in an impressive way.
