Acrylic prints are the contemporary alternative to the regular photo frames and canvas prints. They are a modern way of displaying photographs, artwork, signage, marketing message or any other message on an impressive wall hanging print. These are obtained by printing high resolution images directly on the reverse of crystal clear acrylic. For the final finish the edges of 8mm acrylic are diamond polished.

Types of Finish:

The image that is printed on the reverse of the crystal clear acrylic print does not loose color and the quality remains the same. There are two types of finish. In the opaque finish, a white backing is used and it looks like any other regular photo print and can be hung on any colored wall. Just the opposite is the transparent finish which creates a new dimension to the print by allowing light to interact with the colors of the image. The choice between the two has to be made depending upon the space.

Hanging the Prints:

Highly polished chrome fixings are used to hang the print. They are situated in each of the four corners. These ...
... fixings keep the print slightly away from the wall, so they become very prominent in the room. These fixings are designed to allow movement so that the print is level. There are a variety of finishes and colors in these fixings. Security and hidden fixings are also available. While hanging the print care should be taken not to scratch any of the faces of the acrylic or knock off any of the edges or corners.
