For centuries, original art has been painted on canvas, but the reproduction was always on paper. Why?

Until recent years, you couldn't print on canvas and maintain the high resolution and fine printing quality that was achievable on paper. But because of extraordinary advances in printing technology, and the development of specially-coated Fredrix PrintCanvas, you can now print on canvas in very much the same way you would print on fine papers. Whether you print Lithographs, Serigraphs, Inkjet, or Giclée , there is a Fredrix PrintCanvas product to create visually stunning images. Fredrix also has a full line of canvas transfer products, stretching supplies, and gallery-quality ready-made frames.


Advantages to Printing on Canvas

A canvas reproduction looks more like the original.
A canvas print may not look exactly the same as the original masterpiece, but it will have the added benefit of a natural fine canvas texture, and the distinctive look and color that can only be captured on canvas.


Result.... high perceived value!

A canvas reproduction will command a substantially higher retail price. Leading publishers report that the same image printed on canvas may sell for two to five times more than a paper print.


Result.... more sales at higher margins!

A canvas reproduction does not require matting or glass. The original wasn't matted or covered with glass, so why should the reproduction? By eliminating the glass, you enhance the appearance of the print, eliminate glare, increase the value of the print, and reduce your overall cost.
Result.... lower cost plus higher value equals significantly greater profits!
