Lamination, Mounting and Die Cutting Services

With our in-house finishing services we can make sure your project gets done correctly from start to finish. 

Our services include:

8' x 10' banner being finished in our shopLamination

Lamination is one best ways to protect your printed graphics.  If you are going to use your graphic for more than a few times, as a permanent display or long terms outdoors, you should laminate it.  All of our laminates offer UV protection to extend the life of your printed graphic. The thicker the laminate the more durable.

Mounting

One of the most common questions we get asked is "What is the best thing to mount my graphic to?"  To answer that we need to know how long you are going to use the graphic, what it will be used for, is it inside or outside, will it be in a protective frame, etc.

The table below gives a general idea of the durability/rigidity of various mounting boards.  It is laid out least durable (top left) to most durable (bottom right), top to bottom, left to right.

When a Proof is Not Really a Proof

No Surprises!

Unlike many large format printers, when you order a printed proof from us, you get a proof printed on the same material as your final graphic. Not a piece of paper printed to simulate the final print. 

If you order a vinyl banner proof, your get a proof on vinyl. If you order a trade show graphic proof, you get a proof on trade show graphic material. If your final graphic is laminated, your proof is laminated.

This way you will see your colors as they will be on final piece - No surprises!

Our in-house staff has expertise in getting correct output from the following Mac/PC programs:
Adobe Illustrator CS4
Adobe Indesign CS4
Adobe Photoshop CS4
Adobe Pagemaker 7
 Corel Draw X3
Corel PhotoPaint X3
Microsoft Powerpoint
 Microsoft Publisher 2003
Microsoft Word
QuarkXpress 6.5
