Materials

We offer four basic types of wide-format materials:

  1. Satin-Finish Photo Paper. This is our standard material, and what most people end up choosing. Great for framed long-term indoor installations or short-term exterior usage.
  2. Polypropylene Matte Paper. No-glare, matte finish for great visibility.  Best for symposium posters and short-term exterior usage, as it is wrinkle and tear resistant. 
  3. Satin Cloth (Foldable). Best choice when you need to fold a poster, generally when needing to take a poster out of town.
  4. Vinyl Banner. No-glare, matte finish for great visibility. Best for large, outdoor signs or for long-term usage.  We can add grommets to aid in hanging.

Looking for something different? We can also produce metal signs, coroplast signs, retractable banners, vinyl wall banners, window graphics, magnetic signs, floor graphics, sidewalk flags, and more. Contact us for more details.
