Mohawk and Fedrigoni expand partnership

Fedrigoni, manufacturer of specialty papers for luxury packaging, wine labels and self-adhesive materials, has appointed Mohawk Fine Paper, manufacturer of fine papers and envelopes in North America, as its North American distribution partner for Fedrigoni specialty papers, effective July 2023. 

The new distribution partnership is an extension of Mohawk and Fedrigoni’s manufacturing agreement signed in September 2022 to expand reach of specialty papers globally. 

Mohawk’s distribution partners, and community of creatives and printers throughout North America, will have access to Fedrigoni portfolio (with the exception of Fedrigoni digital papers, distributed exclusively by GPA). The company will support Fedrigoni’s Materia Viva (collection of high-quality, high recycled content papers) and Sirio Pearl (pulp-colored papers and boards with a pearlescent surface) collections, which Mohawk is committed to having stocked and inventoried in North America. 

Melissa Stevens, chief revenue officer of Mohawk, said: ‘Many exciting details will come with the launch of our growing partnership and the opportunity to bring this stunning collection of Fedrigoni papers to the North American market.’ 

Ilan Schinazi, chief commercial officer Fedrigoni Paper, stated: ‘We are delighted to announce that, following our partnership agreement, Fedrigoni creative papers will now be distributed in the US by Mohawk Papers. We strongly believe that Mohawk’s long-term knowledge with key merchants will boost Fedrigoni capability to promote its specialty papers in the creative community and better meet all needs of image-conscious clients in the North American market.’
