MDF

MDF is a dense wood product formed from the fibre of Eucalyptus chips, bonded by heat with synthetic resin glue and pressed into sheets. Your image is mounted onto the surface and finished with black edging.

MDF mounted prints can be provided with or without split battens for hanging purposes. Heavier and more solid than Foam Core, MDF is a great option for display products which need to be tough and durable while still offering a sleek and modern finish. Available in 6mm, 9mm, and 12mm widths.

When uploading your print to our website please specify if you would like to mount on MDF.

Di-Bond

Di-Bond is an aluminum composite material combining two 0.3 mm aluminium surface layers with a polyethylene core.

Di-Bond is a super smooth, high-end product with archival properties that is warp resistant and lightweight. It is one of the most popular archival mounting substrates on the market. It can be provided with or without split battens and D-hooks for hanging purposes.

Di-Bond mounting is ideal for large signage, exhibition, and interior design artworks. Available in 3mm only.

Foam Core

Foam Core is a lightweight and cost effective alternative to framing. Simply choose a paper option and we’ll mount it onto foam core, ready to hang on the wall using your choice of wire, hooks or Velcro.

Foam Core is available in 3 sizes to suit your needs. Our 5mm and 10mm options will show the inner foam along the edge. Choose the 20mm Foam Core to add black or white laminate edging to your final print.

Expertly finished, Foam Core is a brilliant and stylish way to protect posters from tearing and is perfect for treasured, one-of-a-kind items. It also provides a great alternative to blu-tak to prevent marks and stains on walls.
