Your Mounted Print always begins as a photograde archival print on EPSON Gloss or Metallic Gloss paper. Other providers will print directly to the material, which loses depth and colour saturation, and that is why we always use a paper print. Our standard paper is gloss, while metallic gloss gives your image a pearlescent quality that catches and moves with the light.
Once you've chosen your paper, you can mount it on one of several substrates:
1. Aluminum Dibond - This lightweight yet rigid material has a thin, minimalist edge of black and silver. The surface of your print is protected with our sand-textured laminate product which offers UV protection and makes your print matte. The gloss finish is completely hidden by the matte which stops reflection from the print.
2. Facemounted Acrylic Glass - Kingston Frameworks was a pioneer in the development of Acrylic Facemounted Prints more than a decade ago. Today, we have refined our proprietary techniques to create consistent, top quality and dust-free acrylic facemounts. Each print is first mounted directly to a sheet of 6mm acrylic glass that intensifies colour and vividness in your image. It is then backed with 6mm black sintra, although this can be customized. We also offer facemounting to Optium Museum Acrylic - which is anti-glare, scratch and static free, and UV protective. You will LOVE the stunning quality of an Acrylic Facemounted Print.
3. Plaquemount - the classic and affordable way to mount a print on an MDF wooden panel. You can customize the edges of your plaquemount by picking any colour to have custom painted along the edge of your piece.
4. Foam Products - We can mount to high-density foamcore, or to rigid gator foam (special order only)
