Dry Mounting

A clean, flat finish for prints and paper-based artwork where a smooth presentation is essential

Dry mounting secures artwork to a rigid backing board, helping it remain flat, stable and visually clean within the frame, making it especially suitable for prints, posters and photographs.

This process is carefully considered before use, as it is typically permanent, and the nature of the artwork and its purpose are always taken into account before proceeding.

When appropriate, dry mounting produces a crisp, polished finish by reducing ripples and movement, creating a refined presentation that works particularly well for decorative or replaceable pieces.
