What we do​

Founded in 2014 by Anton and his family, Artefex began because artists needed a stronger, longer-lasting surface than wood or stretched canvas. This short film shows our workshop and explains why aluminum composite panels preserve paintings for generations. Every panel ships with a materials log on the back so artists and collectors can track pigments, varnishes and dates. Watch to see how we hand finish each board to museum quality so your best work lasts for decades.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What characterizes the "538" surface on this Allinpanel?
The 538 designation refers to the Extra Fine weave texture of the 100% linen canvas . This surface is professionally lead oil-primed in Italy, providing a classic canvas feel combined with the firmness of a rigid panel . It is specifically engineered for artists who demand finesse and flexibility in their work .
Is this panel suitable for both oil and acrylic painting?
No. Unlike the universally primed options, the Allinpanel Lead Primed Linen is specifically designed for oil painting . The lead oil priming is "primed to perfection" to support the richness of oil paints and preserve the integrity of every layer over time .
How is the 3mm core of this 20x24" panel constructed?
The panel is built on a professional 3mm aluminum composite material (ACM) core, which consists of two strong aluminum sheets laminated to both sides of a solid black polyethylene center . This construction creates a "thin and sleek" profile that is exceptionally stable
How is the linen attached to the aluminum to prevent bubbling?
Artefex utilizes BEVA 371 film to archivaly bond the linen to the ACM surface . This heat-activated adhesive is a conservation industry standard that creates a permanent bond, protecting your art from ever needing to be restretched and preventing the sagging or distortion common with traditional canvas .
Why is this rigid support better for longevity than a standard canvas?
Stretched linen is susceptible to puncture, tearing, and distortion caused by environmental changes . The Artefex ACM core is super rigid, warp-resistant, and has a very low response to humidity and temperature . This ensures your painting maintains its brilliance and structural integrity, meaning it "never sags or cracks" . Each panel also includes a materials log on the back to track pigments, varnishes, and dates for future collectors .
