In New York City, 1868, our founder E. H. Friedrichs endeavored to manufacture the highest quality artist canvas with strict attention to the quality standards of European master craftsmen. 152 years later, Fredrix canvas is synonymous with the original vision of master-quality canvas while maintaining the integrity of the manufacturing process.
This passion for quality resonates through the efforts of our employees and partners to produce a canvas that enhances the creation process, contributing to the satisfaction of the artist and collector.
We commemorate the history, honor our heritage and thank you for trusting FREDRIX canvas. We strive to ensure every artist has the best quality canvas.
