Our archival quality inks help create amazing canvas

Inks are perhaps the biggest differentiator between the product we create and the product manufactured by many of our competitors. As one of the greatest costs to a canvas printing business, inks are one area where many companies try to save money by using inferior, untested inks to create their canvas prints.

Brilliant Prints is different in that we use only independently tested and certified inks that have been proven not to fade for between 75 and 200 years. Many canvas printers are using unsuitable printers and inks, some of which begin to change colour after only 12 months.

Using Genuine inks can also offer a wider colour gamut (range of colours the printer can create).

Black and White Prints

Most of our competitors use colour printers to create their Black and White canvas prints. We are one of the only canvas printers in the southern hemisphere that uses dedicated equipment to create our colour prints and different equipment to create our black and white prints. As shown in the diagram below, our B&W printer contains 6 channels of black ink, varying in densities from 100% to 5%. This offers

Incredibly smooth tonal transition between highlights and shadows. Completely neutral B&W prints (no colour cast throughout the print) Increased archival qualities - independently tested to last 200 years without fading Much denser blacks than prints created from colour printers The result really needs to be seen to be believed. We challenge any other canvas printer to create a B&W canvas print that looks better than those produced from our dedicated equipment.
