Before You Order
Please carefully read the additional information sections below and if in doubt, contact us to discuss your requirements.The size listed is the media size.
If you are able, size the digital image to the exact size required in mm.
Ensure that the digital image size required fits within the media size on both dimensions.
If an intermediate size is required, select the larger size.
If the image is not sized, the image will be printed as large as possible within the media size without cropping.
If the image is not sized and a specific image size is required, contact us to let us know.
Dry mounted prints are bonded onto board at high temperature in a vacuum press to ensure permanent adhesion, extra rigidity and support.
The largest ~A0 prints are slightly smaller at ~ 122cm x 81cm (47" x 32") due to vacuum hot press limitations.
The sides of the board may be coloured in a single colour ink when unframed, on panel hanging plates or a panel tray frame. Contact us if this is required.
Unlaminated prints require surface protection via framing behind a mount and glass, or varnishing.
- 3mm MDF is most suited to a traditional frame or a wooden panel tray frame for smaller sizes up to say A2.
- 6mm MDF is most suited to a traditional frame or a wooden panel tray frame of larger sizes.
- 12mm MDF is also available. Contact us for details.
- 3mm ACP is most suited to hanging unframed, with panel hanging plates, a rear sub-frame or an aluminium panel tray frame.
The film lamination is applied at high temperature in a vacuum press.
Laminated prints on ACP may be hung unframed with either panel hanging plates or a rear sub-frame, for a minimalist, modern appearance. Contact us if this is required.
Laminated prints on MDF may be framed in a traditional standard frame without a mount or glass, or a wooden or aluminium contemporary panel tray frame, for a more sophisticated appearance.
The surface is waterproof hence glazing is not required and the surface may be dusted and wiped clean as admirers will definitely touch the surface!
A satin finish is standard though a gloss or matt finish is also available. Contact us if this is required.
- Each print is individually hand embellished by ourselves, using a course haired brush for texture and acrylic medium to replicate an original, also acrylic varnish for resilience.
- The finished prints are waterproof hence glazing is not required and the surface may be dusted and wiped clean as admirers will definitely touch the surface!
- A gloss finish is standard though a satin or matt finish is available at no additional cost. Contact us if required.
Dry Mounted canvas prints are suitable for:

- Hand embellishing using acrylic and mixed media.
- Varnishing or laminating.
The higher the image resolution you provide us with, the better.
Industry standard publishing quality is 300dpi, which is ideal, though we recommend a minimum of 72dpi.
We upscale all images to 300dpi before printing to preserve the existing image definition, but we cannot create new definition that is not in the original image we receive.
We print all images exactly as received and match each print as closely as possible to the image as displayed on our computer screen.
We are able to provide A4 proofs on paper upon request and this is recommended if colour, tone and contrast are particularly critical.
We are able to edit images to crop, extend into a bleed or border, remove blemishes and make colour / brightness / contrast changes upon request and at a nominal charge.
Contact us to discuss any editing required.
If you would like to discuss framing options, contact us to discuss.
All prints should either be framed behind glass, varnished or laminated for resilience.
Prints should not contact the glass or they will deteriorate over time. Always use a mount to separate the canvas from the glass.
Handle prints carefully to avoid creasing or scuffing. Do not roll tightly. Do not touch or rub the surface. Do not expose to moisture.
