James Cropper and Winter & Company sign exclusive Coloursource deal, bringing British colour to the world

James Cropper has agreed a major new partnership deal that will see renowned global materials supplier Winter & Company become the exclusive partner of Coloursource paper.

Partnership between Mill and Merchant

The agreement is a significant moment for the paper industry, as it forms an exclusive partnership between two family-run businesses that brings the eagerly anticipated Coloursource brand to market. Coloursource is a range of 50 signature shades of paper material, available in three weights, that has been refined over half a century of proprietary fibre innovation and colour formulation, making it the premier choice for businesses looking to prioritise premium UK-made materials.

The new exclusive partnership further strengthens the long-standing relationship between James Cropper and Winter & Company. The two powerhouses of the materials industry share values and expertise, with both having a commitment to design excellence and complementary product portfolios. Winter & Company is known for its high-end cover materials and creative paper solutions, and Coloursource significantly expands its already impressive portfolio of materials for packaging, publishing, stationery, and branding.
