Variable-contrast fibre-based paper

Ilford Multigrade FB Classic is a black-and-white photographic paper coated on a 255g/m² fibre base with a white base tint. It is intended for darkroom printers who want neutral image tone, rich blacks and strong response to toners. The glossy surface enhances tonal rendition and overall print appearance. This product replaces the previous Multigrade IV FB Fiber line.

20x24 inch sheet format

Each pack contains 50 sheets measuring 20 by 24 inches, suited for large-format contact printing or enlargements. The fibre base provides the weight and handling characteristics expected from traditional darkroom papers. No rolls or smaller sheet sizes are included in this pack. The paper is designed for variable-contrast printing using standard filtration.

Faster exposure and reduced wash time

The emulsion offers a short induction time of around 20 seconds for image appearance during development. A closer speed relationship between grades gives more uniform grade separation and an extended low-contrast range at soft filtrations. Wash times are reduced by roughly 50 percent compared with earlier Multigrade FB papers, saving water in the darkroom workflow.

Questions about this item

How does the 255 g/m² fibre base behave once it is in the enlarger and wet-processed?

The heavy fibre base stays flat under the enlarger, resists curling during the short 20-second induction and the reduced wash, and yields rich blacks with neutral tone on the glossy surface.

What contrast control does the variable-grade emulsion give in practice?

You select contrast with standard multigrade filters; grades separate uniformly from 00 to 5, and the faster emulsion cuts exposure time at every grade.

Will the 20 × 24 inch sheets fit my existing print washer and drying racks?

Each sheet measures 20 by 24 inches, so confirm your washer tray and drying screen accept that full size before loading the 50-sheet pack.
