Acrylic Face Mounted Prints
Acrylic face mounted prints give a contemporary, high-gloss, high-contrast finish. Download the price guide.
Acrylic face mounting enhances the contrast, adds sharpness and colour saturation to photographic prints for a gloss look unobtainable by any other framing method. Acrylic face mounts are a truly stunning, unique product and will be the focal point for any room. For this reason they are suitable for contemporary homes, office spaces, hotel lobbies, and restaurants.
The process of bonding photographs to acrylic 'glass' (Plexiglass) protects the image from dirt, scratching and premature fading. This framing technique is widely displayed in museums and galleries throughout the world and remains one of the most impressive ways to showcase an image.
When light hits the layer of acrylic, the reflection on the print's surface is completely different from when a print is framed with general-purpose glass. With this unique production method the 'depth' and colour saturation of the image is optimised due to the clarity of acrylic glass. As a result the colours seem more brilliant, intense and direct, bringing a whole new dimension to the print.
At Gusha face-mounting of your print creates a permanent, smooth fusion of print and 6mm acrylic glass. The technique creates an airtight bond of the print's front side to the back of acrylic. For a clean finish, the final assembly involves attaching a discrete polyester sheet behind the print. An aluminium hanging system is then attached and acts as a spacer to provide that "floating" illusion of your print when mounted to the wall.
Custom Sizes ?
Yes custom sizes available! We can produce a range of sizes in squares, rectangles and panoramas. Sizes range from as small as 38x12 cm to as large as 240x100 cm. There will never be a need to crop your photography because we are able to cut custom frame sizes.
Colour matching and longevity of prints?
We use Epson archival inks to create prints that are vibrant and can last 75 years when displayed indoors. A key feature of our acrylics is that we print on an acid free media specifically designed for face mounting. The face mounting process seals the print from moisture and contaminants in the atmosphere. The acrylic over the face of the print also provides UV protection.
