The importance of fine paper as a definition of luxury even in the age of digital communication was the theme of a recent seminar in Colombo by Arjowiggins Creative Papers, the owner of the global heritage paper brand Conqueror.
Hosted by Papyrus Papers, the local distributor for Conqueror, the ‘Papyrus Design-in-form’ seminar was attended by more than 75 representatives of the design and advertising community, the corporate sector and students of design.
It was conducted for Papyrus by Arjowiggins Creative Papers Marketing and Luxury Brands Director Christophe Balaresque and an international expert on brand differentiation via high-quality paper.
In his presentation, Balaresque cited the examples of motor racing and aviation icon Niki Lauda, French macaroon maestro Pierre Hermé, the noted Indian architect Charles Correra, rock music legend Keith Richards, Picasso and the Japanese martial arts guru Tatsuya Naka (Naka sensei) to illustrate their passion for perfection and the importance of detail in defining luxury.
Listing some of the top international brands that subscribe to this concept, he stressed, “Luxury is attention to detail, originality, exclusivity and above all quality.” Balaresque also made the point that in this age of social media and the convergence of communications, “there is no more B2B or B2C but H2H – Human to Human,” making attention to detail even more important.
In his introduction to the event, Papyrus Corporation Chairman and CEO Ashan Abeyesundere said the company’s objective was to inform, educate and showcase to the market how using fine papers from Arjowiggins can enhance brand image and help brands stand out from the crowd.
Sri Lanka’s leading supplier of fine papers for printing, corporate stationery and luxury packaging, Papyrus Papers has been the sole agent in Sri Lanka for the European heritage fine paper brand Conqueror since the company’s inception in 2002. The company now carries more than 300 stock keeping units (SKUs) in the paper category, including products from its flagship brand Conqueror and 13 other fine paper brands from Antalis/Arjowiggins.
