They contain only the purest medium fine ground artists' pigments, which are in the highest possible concentration. Contrastingly, the binding agent content, is kept to a minimum, which ensures a stable compound. In order to guarantee the highest quality it is necessary to manufacture Schmincke pastels using special recipes which avoid the use of machinery during manufacture. 'Worm extruders' form the pre-kneaded dough into round skeins, which are then detached by hand and cut in a wirestrung frame. The damp sticks have to dry for around eight days before they can be labelled and packed by hand. This is a costly and time consuming process, however it is the only way Schmincke can guarantee homogenous quality and smoothness in all the production cycles.

Due to popular demand, UART has produced a new, dark version of their classic Premium Sanded Pastel Paper! This dark, acid-free, archival substrate allows artists to create vibrant effects with super rich contrasts. This surface is made using the same materials and consistent texture as UART's regular sand coloured paper and will, therefore, accept a wide variety of wet media. Available in 400, 500, 600 & 800 grade. Please note that the colour of the paper fluctuates depending on which grades you are using: while the 400 & 500 grades provide a rich black texture, the 600 & 800 grades lean towards a dark charcoal colour, as the higher the grade, the smaller the pigments are.
