100% Cotton Canvas Prints
The canvas used in printing comes in various weaves, weights and materials.The heavier the weight of a canvas the more "luxurious" it feels. It can also hold its shape much better over the course of time. Tighter weaves give a less textured surface that means more photographic details can be printed but sometimes at the expense of the natural look and feel of the canvas. Finally the material used to make the canvas tends to normally be either cotton or man made polyester.
Cotton canvas is harder to work with than polyester but below we'll tell you why we only use cotton canvas to ensure you receive the best canvas prints possible:
1) Cotton canvas can be made in a much heavier weight that polyester - the feel is of a natural fabric rather than a plastic fibre
2) Cotton canvas retains much more "texture" compared to polyester which can be very flat. Polyester doesn't always feel like canvas.
3) Cotton canvases have lasted centuries with the earliest painting on cotton dating back to 1410.
Cotton canvas looks better, feels better and provides a much more luxurious finish for your customers. That's why we use it!
