- The rough texture hides poor details like low resolution images and poor lenses.
- There is no glass to clean or break.
- The colour and tones are excellent.

WARNING: Canvas printing is relatively easy these days, but clients should be aware that the ‘finishing’ by major retailers is less than adequate. Without proper lamination, stapling and taping the canvas will degrade earlier than a professionally manufactured product. And the price saving isn’t that great. Uncoated canvas cannot be washed and will retain any mark, chemical, spray, spit, fingerprint etc. Remember - large retailers provide ‘a service’ not ‘service’. If your image needs attention with things like sharpness, cropping, custom sizes, colour corrections etc it’s not going to happen...
Canvas prints are manufactured using a high quality polyester/cotton blend canvas substrate. The mix of polyester to cotton combines the strength of polyester with the random pattern of cotton. The artist’s matt coating bends and folds easily without cracking, and the bright white base ensures a high contrast and full colour image.
Life expectancy is above 40 years uncoated to 80 years coated with a ‘3 layer’ coating of Viponds Liquid laminate.
The wrap area is created by ‘mirror wrapping’ techniques to provide a seamless edge, or the image portion is used where such image portion does not diminish the balance and detail of the finished print.
Canvas has 3 coatings of Viponds® Liquid Laminate applied. It imparts a semigloss finish and doubles the life of the canvas to 80 years, while protecting it from environmental contamination.
