Custom Canvas Stretching
Give your artwork the foundation it deserves. Our professional custom canvas stretching service is backed by 25+ years of industry expertise and precision craftsmanship.
Every canvas is expertly hand-stretched in our NSW warehouse by skilled technicians for even, long-lasting tension tailored to your exact specifications.
We use European kiln-dried Baltic pine stretcher bars for strength and stability, delivering gallery-ready results for artists, galleries, designers and collectors.
Choose from 12 premium canvas options tailored to your medium and style, including cotton in 8oz, 10oz, 12oz and 15oz (available unprimed or primed), 12oz black-primed cotton for bold, high-contrast work, and professional linens — 420gsm and 540gsm primed, plus 500gsm black-primed — for archival durability and a refined surface.
We build to your exact size, from 30 cm studies to 5-metre feature pieces, using premium materials and meticulous technique to ensure consistent tension and long-term stability at every scale.
