The ultimate in print image permanence quality preservation
The hot vacuum applied laminate provides protection from UV fading, moisture and scuff marks. According to Wilhelm Imaging Research, the world’s leading researchers of print image preservation, our prints on canvas resist fading for 240 years, while most other canvas prints produced elsewhere are only rated to last 3 to 10 years. Some claim 100 years but the UV blockers will degrade the clarity of the print as it is produced. Be wary of canvas products that are uncoated or protected with lacquers as they will crack, fade, and turn yellow over time!
Kiln-dried, solid, sustainable wooden stretcher bars
Quality of wood is critical. The quality of the wood used in making a stretcher has a major impact on the longterm stability of the stretched canvas.
Our wood is of a select clear grade, with straight grain, free of knots, splits, resin blisters and other defects. Our wood is kiln dried to a moisture content of 8% or less. Air dried wood in lumber yards typically has moisture levels ranging from 12% to over 25% and will usually warp or twist as it dries.
Hand mounting and hand stretching
Stretching canvas on a frame requires skill and knowledge, our team of artisans carefully position and hand-stretch each canvas to perfection and ensure the corners are perfectly folded for a cleaner finish.
