Fredrix Artist Canvas
America's oldest artist canvas brand, founded in 1868 by E.H. Friedrichs as the first US manufacturer of canvas for the art trade. Fredrix has primed cotton and linen canvas at its Lawrenceville, Georgia factory since 1974 using both machine coating and traditional hand-priming techniques. Now produced by Ecker Textiles with MacPherson's as exclusive distributor, every Fredrix canvas is primed in America with acid-free acrylic titanium gesso — no imports, no outsourcing. The factory operates with a zero-waste goal and has sourced from the same linen supplier for over a century.
