We use the latest Epson SureColor P20070 Wide Format Inkjet Printer. This printer is well regarded as one of the best and most efficient Inkjet printer in the commercial market. It fits paper rolls

All Canvas Prints are printed with the latest eco-solvent technology on high end canvas material. All canvas' are printed, stretched and
ready to hang with a mirror edge type (example pictured below).

We print our canvases with an Epson SureColor S80600 Eco-Solvent Printer to ensure outstanding photographic print quality, and long lasting durability. The printing process results in a protected canvas,
that has water, UV and dust resistance built-in.

We then cut and stretch our canvases by hand in our factory. This means
we can cut our timber and stretch a canvas to any size and not be limited to set sizes. It also lets us accurately and tightly stretch the canvas to perfection.

We pride ourselves on the quality of our craftsmanship and use only the best, sustainable materials for every stage of the production process.
