As all canvas prints are handmade items, the end result can differ greatly, it takes years of experience to print and manufacture high quality canvas art. Our team is lead by our very own fine arts graduate who understands customers needs.
We haven't just arrived in the photo canvas marketplace, for us photos on canvas compliment our huge range of photo printing products.
Printing Process & The Canvas - the best photographic canvas available on the market today is used at Fotofast. We are constantly trialling and sourcing canvas from USA and Europe. We do not use inferior cheap canvas from Asia and other countries.
Image resolution - a print can only be as good as the source it is printed from the industry standard is 300 dpi which is used in all professional - media. So a resolution of 300 dpi onto a fine grade canvas will produce the highest level of detail.
Life Span Of Canvas Art Prints & Green Technology - Fotofast use the very latest "green" printing technology. Our prints will last many generations, over 80 years. This new technology gives a finished product that is water resistant unlike many budget canvas producers. It can easily be wiped with a clean damp cloth.
Colour Quality - we are a photographic lab with over 20 years experience in colour management.This is the most important aspect of the printing process, it involves the calibration of both printers, monitors and especially the photo papers and canvas. This can only be achieved with the specialist technology and trained operators. We always tweak your image to ensure that the best possible quality print from your photo is achieved.
Monitor settings can give very different results and totally change look and feel of images displayed on the web. It is worth checking your monitor is not over contrasted and the colour balance is set to normal. We use specialist equipment to make sure that our computer monitors have no colour bias and are calibrated regularly.
The Frame - the ideal frame for canvas prints is kiln dried wood as it is light weight and does not warp with heat as all the moisture has already been removed, this provides for the most stable frame choice. We use New Zealand plantation grown radiata pine for a really professional finish. Canvas photos are much lighter than traditionally framed prints without the need for glass, making them much easier to transport when you move home.
Display Choice - all of our canvas art comes gallery wrapped which means the image is stretched around the edges of the frame to create a seamless museum quality finish. You have the choice of a complete image wrap, white or coloured edges or we can mirror your image around the sides.
Ordering - you can order online, or if you prefer in store with a team member to assist you on one of our unique ordering stations.
