Mounting and Laminating options

 

What makes a photographic print special? The answer is correct mounting, and there a number of ways to achieve the perfect one! 
 

Flush Mount is a print mounted onto a board,  which is the same size as the print and frame. As the print surface can not safely be allowed to contact frame glass, it will have to be laminated and a laminated print does not need to be behind glass as it is already well protected. 

Protective and Decorative Finishes such as textured laminates in linen, leather and luster are attractive, as well as the glossy finish. These laminates fully seal and protect the mounted print. They are applied under heat and pressure and permanently bond onto the print surface. 

 
Canvas Bonding is probably the most popular way to prepare a print for display.

The print is sealed front and back by laminates that completely seal and protect the print. At the same time the canvas underneath the print embosses the texture in the pressing.

  • Attractive look
  • Pleasing feel to touch
  • Easy to clean

You have the choice of Laminated Canvas Bonded finishes.

  • Canvas on Board which is suitable for all image styles as it has a subtle low texture effect, and will even fit slim modern rims.
  • Canvas Wrap on Stretchers, as shown here, with a high texture. These laminated canvas bonded prints can be displayed without a rim on deep stretchers or framed conventionally in a deeper molding.

 

For the purists is our Giclee Canvas - a real Fine Art Finish. This is not a laminated bonded print, but an image printed directly onto artists canvas.
