Printable Canvas With Sparkling

A decorative canvas material featuring integrated reflective particles, designed for digital printing to create eye-catching graphics with a shimmering visual effect.

Manufactured by Shanghai Hanker Industrial Co., Ltd.

Product Overview

Printable Canvas With Sparkling is an innovative substrate that combines the classic texture of artist canvas with finely dispersed reflective particles. This material is engineered for high-definition digital printing, where the printed image interacts with light to produce a dynamic, sparkling appearance that changes with the viewer's perspective.

The base is a high-quality, poly-cotton blend canvas with a stable coating that accepts solvent, eco-solvent, latex, and UV inks effectively. The sparkling elements are evenly embedded within the coating, ensuring a consistent effect across the entire print surface without interfering with print head pathways. It is suitable for creating premium decorative pieces, retail displays, and artistic reproductions where added visual interest is desired.

  •  Warp-Resistant: Constructed to resist sagging or warping when stretched over large frames.
  •  Consistent Sparkle Distribution: Manufacturing process ensures even dispersal of reflective particles across the entire roll.
  •  Inkjet-Receptive Coating: Optimized for quick ink drying and strong pigment bonding to reduce curing time.
  •  Versatile Finish Compatibility: Can be left uncoated for a natural feel or laminated for enhanced protection and different sheen levels.

 Printing & Handling Recommendations

Design Consideration

Consider how the sparkling effect will interact with your design. Darker areas may show sparkle more prominently, while fine text might be slightly diffused.

Print Settings

Use a higher pass count or unidirectional printing mode for optimal ink coverage on the textured surface. Ensure printer heaters (for latex/solvent) are set appropriately.

Stretching & Framing

When gallery-wrapping, stretch the canvas evenly and securely. The material has less stretch than raw canvas, so avoid over-tightening.

Protective Finishes

For unprotected displays, consider applying a liquid canvas varnish instead of laminate to preserve the natural texture while adding protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions regarding the use and characteristics of Printable Canvas With Sparkling.

Does the sparkle affect the color accuracy of the print?

The bright white base and optimized coating are designed to deliver accurate colors. The sparkle is a physical, clear particle that reflects ambient light but does not tint or significantly alter the color as perceived from the primary viewing angle. A printed color chart test is recommended.

Can this material be used for outdoor applications?

It is primarily designed for indoor use. While the coating offers some water resistance, prolonged exposure to UV sunlight and weather could degrade the coating, affect ink longevity, and potentially compromise the sparkling effect over time.

Is it possible to laminate this canvas?

Yes, both thermal (heat-assisted) and pressure-sensitive laminates can be applied. A matte or satin finish laminate is recommended to maintain a natural look. Lamination will slightly reduce the tactile texture but will protect the print surface significantly.

How should I store unused rolls?

Store rolls in a flat, horizontal position in a cool, dry environment (15-25°C, 40-60% RH). Avoid vertical storage or placing heavy objects on top, as this can deform the roll and create flat spots or creases.

Can the material be sewn or stitched?

It is not designed for sewing. The coating and base material are relatively stiff, and stitching may crack the coating or cause the canvas to tear. For fabric-based assemblies, consider hemming with adhesive tape instead.
