This year heading back to school, there is a surprise in your rucksack: the legendary F4 pad comes with important updates. This iconic FABRIANO product — the drawing pad that has accompanied generations of students, creators, and artists since the 1970s, giving shape to millions of ideas, designs, thoughts, and emotions — today has a new graphical look. A watermarked cover, ECOLABEL certification, and the Atlas of Paper make the new F4 even more unique, combining legend, innovation, and respect for the environment.

Printmaking Tales is the new project by FABRIANO curated by Umberto Giovannini and published by Opificio della Rosa. It is dedicated to art printing and designed to trace the history of an ancient, fascinating technique that has accompanied generations of artists. A large map used to recount the stages and evolution of printmaking to learn about the techniques and styles that have followed over the centuries, profound artistic changes, and their different variations.

Fedrigoni group generated strong results in the 1st half of 2022, that confirm our ability to navigate a delicate context and prove our solidity. The agreement with Mohawk will allow Fedrigoni to produce and distribute high value papers directly in the US, a market that the Group intends to cover even better. The commitment to follow sustainable policies at every stage of the production process constitutes a further element of cooperation between the two companies.
Mohawk owns Crane, which, like Fabriano, produces Arts, Drawing and Stationery products that inspire consumers to draw, paint and writte on some of the most beautiful papers in the world. Together, Fabriano and Crane, will actively participate in this new collaboration and will mutually explore opportunities to grow market share.
