About Us
Our craft is built on deep roots and rich traditions, where we blend both new and old designs and bring them to life on skin. Every tattooer knows that strong linework is the foundation of a great tattoo—it's what ensures lasting quality and clarity in the finished piece.
For decades, there has been only one trusted source of stencil paper in the industry—so much so that it became a staple in every artist’s routine.
Carbon & Ribbon was created with a simple mission: to improve one of the most essential yet overlooked steps in tattooing—stencil making.
In partnership with the global stationery company Kores, we’re setting out to establish a “New Standard” in tattoo stencil paper.
Carbon & Ribbon is built by tattooers and suppliers who live and breathe the craft. With over 60 years of combined tattooing experience and more than two decades of supplying professional artists since 1998, our goal is to offer the industry a new choice—stencil paper of uncompromising quality.
