3P's Universal Glossy Canvas wins prestigious DPI award 2006

3P received their second DPI Product of the Year award in succession with their canvas products.

Universal Glossy Canvas (IQ-IJ109) was awarded with the DPI (Digital Printing and Imaging Association) Product of the Year 2006 in the Fabric category. 3P InkJet Textiles Corp. introduced this brand new media at the recent SGIA Show held in Las Vegas and Photokina at Cologne.

Ergosoft Corp. printed the winning print with their RIP software TexPrint Version 12 on Canon's 60" Image PROGRAF iPF9000 with the new 12-color pigment system on 3P's Universal Glossy Canvas. Last year the same award went to 3P's Studio Canvas (IQ-IJ 111) in combination with Mimaki and Ergosoft Corp.

"We are delighted to win the Product of the Year award with our latest development" said Thomas Pötz, chairman of 3P InkJet Textiles Corp. "This innovative Universal coating simplifies printing for everyone. Universal Glossy Canvas offers cross platform ink and printer compatibility with optimal quality output. Every popular inkjet printer using pigment or dye-based ink, solvent, eco-solvent or UV curable inks can all be used. "

Universal Glossy Canvas (IQ-IJ109) fulfils professional demands in fine art and digital photographic printing. The bright-white fabric offers accurate color reproduction and maximum image quality with vivid colors. Highest resolution prints with finest tonal variations in color and grayscale are possible. 3P's micro-porous coating offers wide color gamut and unique UV-resistance. The raw canvas as well as the coating is free of optical brightener additives to maximize longevity of fine art prints and avoid yellowing. The Cotton/Polyester blend is particularly suitable for precise stretching over frames without any cracking, because ink and coating build a flexible and hard-wearing unit. 3P also recommends the effectiveness of Universal Canvas for premium point of sale material or exhibition displays.

Universal Canvas is available from 24 to 122 inches wide on 3 inch cores. A functional 2"core adapter is also provided with every supply of Universal Glossy Canvas fabric free of charge.
