ILFORD MULTIGRADE FB CLASSIC is a premium quality, variable contrast, black and white photographic paper on a heavyweight baryta coated, fibre base. It is designed for creative printers wanting neutral image tone, great clarity and a good response to toners.

Versatile and easy to use, this paper creates rich deep blacks and has excellent tonal rendition. MULTIGRADE FB CLASSIC responds well to toning, chemical reduction and retouching techniques, particularly on the glossy surface.

MULTIGRADE FB is also available in [Cooltone] and [Warmtone] variants and is compatible with the ILFORD optimum permanence wash sequence.

MULTIGRADE FB CLASSIC is part of the ILFORD MULTIGRADE system and seven full grades of contrast can be achieved when used with ILFORD MULTIGRADE filters. It can be used with most common safelights for black & white darkroom paper such as the ILFORD 902 safelight filter.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Alexander G. ★★★★★

The tonal range on this paper is gorgeous for portraits—the fibre base holds detail in the highlights without blocking up, and it dries perfectly flat after washing. I’ve used a lot of matte papers, but this one feels substantial and prints with a depth that’s hard to beat.

Ruby ★★★★★

The heavy baryta coating gives these prints a depth and archival feel I haven't gotten from other papers. The 5x7 size is perfect for my test prints and smaller framed work.

Henry X. ★★★★★

After years of using resin-coated papers, the extra weight and subtle sheen of this fibre base feels substantial in the darkroom. The 5×7 size is perfect for test strips and small prints, and the tonal range from a good negative is incredibly smooth.
