Heavy Cotton Canvas is a heavy weight 100% cotton canvas-like substrate with a medium weight coating. It is a common substrate used for direct printing.

Pros: The rigid surface of Heavy Cotton Canvas lends itself to permanent installation onto frames or structures. It is great when you need a heavy and durable material. The heavy coating makes it take black well when the file is built with the black set to the optimized ratios (see digital file prep guidelines)

Cons: It is fairly heavy and therefore large backdrops may end up being too heavy for bands looking for the convenience of “light weight” drapes. Also – this is not an overly wrinkle resistant material. Consider Heavy Knit for projects that require wrinkle resistance.
