We're Paper People

We care greatly about both the quality and environmental impact of the papers we offer. Learn more about our paper choices below.

Hardcover & Softcover Book Pages

100% Post-consumer Waste Recycled Paper

Artifact Uprising is proud to feature Mohawk Options 100 PC White text stock paper for all of our hardcover and softcover interior book pages. This paper is made of 100% post-consumer waste material and we are proud to be one of the first photo book companies to feature this progressive paper in our books. This paper is acid-free, FSC Certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, manufactured with Windpower and provides outstanding print performance.

Because this paper is made of 100% post consumer fiber, there will be small fibers that can show up in the paper. While barely visible – we see these tiny fibers as beauty marks of a better choice for the environment.

This paper is featured in all interior printed pages of our photo books including the hardcover, softcover and Instagram friendly books.

Layflat Album Interior Pages

Mohawk proPhoto LUSTRE + Superfine Eggshell

Our Layflat Photo Albums are printed with your choice of either Mohawk proPhoto Paper in Lustre finish or Mohawk Superfine paper in Eggshell finish. Mohawk proPhoto paper, engineered for use on digital presses, is an eco-conscious alternative for those who love the look of traditional silver halide photographic printing. The Mohawk Superfine paper – renowned for its textured eggshell finish – is the same paper made popular by our prints, calendar and softcover photo books.

With an overall page thickness of .04", each layflat page is made from multiple ultra-thick pieces bound together, resulting in rigidity that's built to last. These papers are acid-free and FSC Certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, ensuring the responsible management of the forests that produce these materials. Artifact Uprising is proud to feature these two paper types in all of our Layflat Photo Albums.

Print + Cover Stock Papers

Mohawk Superfine Eggshell

Artifact Uprising is proud to feature Mohawk Superfine Eggshell White paper for our cover stock, square prints and calendar items. Mohawk Superfine is acid-free and archival, FSC Certified, and manufactured with wind power. As described by Mohawk Paper, "Mohawk Superfine is the finest printing paper made today. No other paper has the same reputation for quality, consistency and uniformity. Superfine inspires great design with its superb formation, lush tactility, archival quality and timeless appeal." Mohawk Superfine Eggshell is not a recycled paper and we do not offer a recycled option for our prints, calendars and softcover cover stock at this time.

This paper is featured in all square prints and calendars. It is also the cover stock paper for all softcover photo books.
