I am introducing a paper showroom in Tokyo where you can obtain samples of printing paper. Please make use of them for your book making and artwork production.

Showroom where you can get free samples.

I will start with showrooms where you can get free paper samples. I often visit the following showrooms.

Nippon Paper Group Ochanomizu Paper Gallery

Ochanomizu

〒101-0062 Tokyo, Chiyoda City, Kanda Surugadai, 4 Chome−6−番地

Nippon Paper Industries’ showroom is located on the 9th floor of Ochanomizu Sola City.

To enter, you must get an entrance pass from the reception desk at Solaseity.

Almost a full lineup of Nippon Paper Industries’ paper samples (with printed samples) is available here.

Besides that, samples of actual printed materials (books, magazines, picture books, etc.) using Nippon Paper Industries’ paper are on display, and even the brand name of what kind of paper is used.
Since you can hold the samples in your hands, you can get a clear image of the finished printed product.

KYOBASHI Paper Showroom

Higashi-Nihonbashi

1-chōme-1-18 Higashi-nihonbashi, Chuo City, Tokyo 103-0004

Kyobashi Shigyo’s showroom in Higashi-Nihonbashi.

While the two mentioned above are paper manufacturers, this is a paper distributor, so we have samples from a variety of paper manufacturers, including

• Oji Paper
• Nippon Paper Industries Co.
• Mitsubishi Paper Mills
• Hokuetsu Kishu Paper
• Takeo
• Heiwa Paper
• Daio Paper
• Taisho Paper

Here you will find a selection of the A4 printing samples mentioned above, though not the full lineup. This is also where you can browse through the Dainik and Toyo Cloth, as well as other cloth samples for bookbinding.

There are also a lot of other goodies with printed samples, many of which you can take home with you.

Showrooms and paper stores where paper samples can be purchased for a fee.

If you want to get free samples, if you only want to look at one place, the KYOBASHI Paper Showroom, which has samples from several paper manufacturers.
If you have a specific paper manufacturer for the samples you want, it is better to go to the showroom of the appropriate manufacturer.
Basically, it is a good idea to visit all three locations introduced here.
