  • General Information about Picture Canvases
    We create full colour, vibrant reproductions of your photos to ensure your images are displayed to the highest possible quality, in a range of unique and custom sizes to suit you. All with a lifetime guarantee.

    Using sublimation printing, we produce a deep and rich print which looks stunning on the genuine woven canvas. Our sublimation process guarantees sharp detail and unbeatable colour and means no shine or plastic coating. The canvas is stretched over wooden frames which are handmade on site in the UK, to ensure long-lasting reproductions that won’t crack or split over time. We’re so confident that we provide the best picture canvas prints, we even offer a lifetime guarantee with every order.

    Your canvas frame is available in two depth options – either 2.5cm or 4.5cm, with a choice of wrap options. Choose a thicker depth for larger canvases. They also come ready to hang – so your photo can go straight from your camera or phone, to gallery or home.

    Begin your standard canvas printing process in our online design tool, which is easy to use and allows full control over your image and the final print. You also have the option to customise your image by adding text, other images, or even creating a photo montage.

  • Further Technical Details
    • Unbeatable Range of Sizes

      Our flexible sizing and quick turnarounds mean there’s no limit to where your imagination can take you with picture canvas prints. Choose from a range of sizes from small (30 cm x 30 cm) to large (200 cm x 150 cm). Pick from a 2.5 cm thick frame for a more lightweight canvas, or a 4.5 cm frame to give your flat canvas design more depth or for larger picture canvas prints.

    • High Quality Woven Canvas

      A 300 gsm, heavy, woven canvas is the best choice for presenting and preserving your stunning designs. We use a high quality 100% poly fabric which won’t weaken over time like its cotton counterpart and will enable your canvas to remain strong and vibrant. The material has a grain to it, giving your prints a gallery feel.

    • Hand Built Frames

      Our hand built canvas frames are made onsite in our London factory, ensuring that every canvas receives the best care and attention. FSC approved laminated pinewood provides high quality, contemporary finish for your photo. The premium wood is completely warp-proof which guarantees a long-lasting and sturdy reproduction. After being hand-stretched, our makers use 8 wedges to get that perfectly tensioned canvas finish that will last years to come. A robust stretched canvas will give you peace of mind for your beautiful design.

    • Superior Printing Method

      We opt for a sublimation dying process over inkjet to give you the very best. This method of printing uses heat and pressure to lock the dyes into the canvas fibres rather than simply laying them on top, providing a rich and durable picture canvas without a shiny plastic coating. Expect a sleek matt finish and beautifully rich and vibrant colours, particularly for deeper tones.

      Our superb reproductions are incredibly durable, with the ink being completely scratch free. You can even wipe clean your canvas or wash it should you need to. To preserve the rich colours, keep the canvas out of direct sunlight.

      Solvent-free, environmentally friendly inks will give you peace of mind, as well as allowing for a high-quality print. Our products and processes are eco-friendly wherever possible, to reduce our carbon footprint on the planet.

    • Wrap Options

      Depending on your photograph, you might choose from a range of wrap options for the sides of your canvas. You have the choice of a gallery wrap where the image continues and is wrapped around the side of the frames, but we also offer mirrored edges if preferred. You can easily select the option once you press “Start Design”. Important details can sometimes get lost along the edges, so check our design tips below for guidance on choosing your wrap.

    • Ready To Hang

      Your picture canvas print comes stretched and ready to hang, with an easy to use wall hanging kit. The kit includes screws, a picture hook, and a wall plug. Simply affix the hook to the back of your canvas frame, and display it around your home, office or gallery.

  • Design Tips
    • Wrap Choice

      Sometimes important details are near the edge of the photograph which means they may get wrapped around the edges of the canvas. Examine your photo and choose the best wrap option to give you a good quality canvas print. Particularly for images of people, make sure the tops of the heads aren’t too close to the edge. If you want a coloured canvas side, place the picture on the front and choose a coloured wrap option for ease.

      Bear in mind that with designs with a large area left white, the frame can sometimes be visible through the canvas fabric.

    • Bleed Area

      The product bleed is the leeway needed when producing a product. This area should be filled with your image as it might be visible on the final product, however, do not add any important details such as heads or text as they may be cut off on the finished standard canvases.

    • Design Ideas

      Picture canvas prints are a beautifully modern way to display artwork in a variety of settings. Why not try displaying a photograph or an image of a painting on a larger scale? The canvas will give the piece a contemporary feel, and remain sleek and stylish. Try a close up still life photo or a blurred action shot for an effective look.

    • Hanging Ideas

      Picture canvas printing is an effective way to share your artwork or photographs without traditional framing. Photographers or artists can use canvas prints to give imagery depth for an exhibition or gallery display. It’s also a great way to add a splash of colour to brighten up your bedroom or office space with some vibrant artwork. Another option is to use canvas printing for family photos and memories, which can then be gifted to loved ones or shared around the house, e.g. along a stairway or in the living room.

    • Montage Options

      If you can’t decide on one photo, try our montage option to create a collage of multiple images with a range of fun and creative frame options. Add multiple photos with ease by uploading directly from social media or your computer.
