The average man in the street will not have any idea of what vellum or grid vellum is, unless they are an artist or technical draftsman professional. Vellum is a material similar to paper but far stronger, longer lasting and more durable than any paper product. As far back as 1000 BC, vellum was produced from animal skins using certain primitive techniques. Young animals skins were preferred because they were far more pliable, and while still wet their skins were stretched over frames and scraped until they were clean enough, and afterwards dried out to be used for writing. You can see that this vellum material has lasted over the centuries because some of these vellum parchments are still legible today. In today's times special equipment and other materials are used to make vellum. Special grid vellum with standard ruled markings is available that is used widely in many different industries from art to engineering drawing.

Today grid vellum and vellum products are manufactured from special cotton and wood pulp fibers rather than animal skins. You will find that there are vellum papers used for certificates, cards, artistry, technical drawing, and even special diary paper because of its tough, long lasting qualities. Dataprint is pleased to offer artists and technical drawing personnel excellent quality grid vellum sheets, 50 sheet tablets, and rolls that are all excellent value for money for your needs. Grid vellum comes in different sized grids that can be used for drawing of blue prints and designs to certain specifications. Because of the set measurements of grid vellum by grid and block, a lot of measurement and calculation work can be done away with.
