Press release submitted on behalf of Mohawk Fine Papers, Inc. and the Fedgrigoni Group

Mohawk Fine Papers, Inc. and the Fedrigoni Group are pleased to announce that effective today August 01, 2023, Mohawk will be the distributor of Fedrigoni’s Specialty Fine Papers for North America.

Mohawk is North America’s largest privately owned manufacturer of fine papers and envelopes, and Fedrigoni is the leading global player in the manufacture of high-added-value specialty papers for luxury packaging and other creative applications.

Mohawk’s distribution partners and community of creatives and printers will have full access to the Fedrigoni creative portfolio (with the exception of Fedrigoni digital papers, distributed by GPA). Mohawk and Fedrigoni have committed to bringing both inventory support and marketing focus to bolster the growing luxury packaging and creative solutions print segments.

Fedrigoni’s collection of beautifully crafted, responsible, and innovative papers are the perfect complement to Mohawk’s legacy of paper brands. Fedrigoni Materica, Woodstock, Freelife Cento, and Sirio Pearl are just a curated sampling of what is possible to create with Fedrigoni specialty papers. Fedrigoni Paper offers tailor-made solutions for print and packaging customers, alongside a collection of more than 3,000 items available from stock.

“We are delighted to evolve our strategic partnership agreement by bringing together Mohawk’s trusted and valued relationship with the North American market to expand Fedrigoni’s capability to promote its specialty papers in the creative community and better meet all needs of image-conscious clients for all the ways they print, says Melissa Stevens, Chief Revenue Officer of Mohawk.

“The alliance with Mohawk will accelerate our geographic expansion in the US in the increasingly promising sector of specialty papers for luxury packaging and other creative and technical solutions,” states Ilan Schinazi, Chief Commercial Officer of Fedrigoni Paper. “We are determined to grow our market-leading position by leveraging the reshoring trend in the US and our deep customer partnerships with top luxury brands in Europe, and developing our relationships with US brands.”

Shared core values of craftsmanship, innovation, and sustainability make this distribution partnership both a natural extension of their existing agreements and a valuable opportunity for our mutual customers to strengthen their brand identity and ESG strategies for all their specialty print. Mohawk and Fedrigoni will be actively working together in the market to promote the value of specialty papers and the unique and creative solutions paper-based materials can bring to a brand.
