Are canvas boards OK for permanent, finished paintings?
All Utrecht brand canvas panels are suitable for permanent painting (this is not necessarily true of other brands). Our original cotton duck canvas boards are made using sugarcane bagasse particle board, an acid-free board made from agricultural waste. Genuine cotton duck is acrylic primed and mounted using archival heat-activated adhesive. Our best quality linen painting panels are constructed of hardboard for permanence and strength, and covered with genuine Belgian linen. Both can be used for finished art. Back to Top.
