1. Photo Printing – Choose Your Preferred Print Type

Before placing an order, it is important to choose the most suitable photo print type. We offer four quality solutions for different image styles and applications:

• Classic Photo Print – sizes up to 30x45 cm on Kodak or Fujifilm color silver paper. Excellent for portraits. If intended for framing behind glass, we recommend choosing matte surface. Photos are relatively resistant to scratches.
• Inkjet Photo Print – material maximum width up to 1.62m, length virtually unlimited. Various materials adaptable to different image subjects. Especially suitable for black and white photos. For longevity, we recommend lamination.
• Fine Art Inkjet Print – same inkjet printing using higher-grade materials (various textures and thickness). We recommend coating to preserve both quality and appearance. Premium service.
• Canvas Print – Inkjet printing on quality canvas specially prepared for this process, stretched on a wooden frame. Includes coating for protection against mechanical damage.

2. Mounting Selection – For Stability and Image Protection

Mounting for photography is an essential element that prevents it from warping, ensures durability and suitability for framing or display without frames. We offer several mounting materials according to different budgets and applications:

• Foam Board with Double-sided Aluminum Coating (5mm) – the most popular choice due to affordable price and shape stability. The aluminum layers make this material considerably stiffer than regular foam board. Excellent for short-term exhibitions or photo framing.
• Komatex (4mm PVC) – stiffer and more durable than foam board. Since it is weather-resistant, it is especially suitable for photos intended for outdoor display. We recommend using it with lamination to ensure weather protection.
• Aluminum composite panel known as Dibond – the most durable and stable mounting material. Made from polyethylene core embedded between two 0.3mm aluminum sheets. Suitable for both large-format prints and long-term display. Premium solution.
• Dibond with 3mm Acrylic Coating – the image with special transparent adhesive film designed for this purpose is laminated between a Dibond base and a transparent acrylic sheet. Results in high-quality image with a dimensional effect. An elegant and exclusive solution.

3. Image Hanging – Safe Image Attachment

Hanging of images must be not only convenient but also safe. For larger prints (over 40×60 cm), additional measures are also desirable to prevent mounting deformation. For this purpose, we use various hanging methods and backing frames that ensure both durability and shape stability:

• Adhesive Hooks for Hanging – the simplest and most affordable solution, yet it doesn't solve shape stability problems for larger image sizes.
• Backing Frame of two Aluminum-U profiles – (15x15mm or 20x20mm depending on image size) – recommended for images exceeding 40×60 cm. Such construction prevents warping and allows safe wall hanging. The profiles are glued to the back of the image, also serving as a spacer and a hanger.
• Full Aluminum U-profile Backing Frame – profile (15x15mm or 20x20mm depending on image size) that encompasses the entire back of the image at a distance of 5–10 cm from the edges. Such a backing frame provides maximum rigidity and shape stability even for very large images. Used both for attachment and as a natural distance creator from the wall, similar to the so-called floating frame.

Hooks are suitable for smaller and lighter mountings (e.g., foam board). Backing frames are most often used with Dibond or Dibond with acrylic to ensure excellent stability.

4. Protection Selection – Protect Your Photography

To make photos resistant to scratches, moisture and time effects, they need to be protected. We offer several professional protection solutions for both visual quality and longevity:

• Lamination – the most commonly used solution. Available in both matte and glossy coating. Protects from scratches and UV radiation, also strengthens image surface. Affordable and effective protection for everyday photos.
• Coating – especially suitable for Fine Art inkjet photo prints as it preserves the natural texture of the paper. Slightly lower protection than in the case of lamination, yet aesthetically highlights fine textures and the character of the material.
• Glazing with Matte Glass – 2mm glass that significantly reduces reflections. A good choice if you want to view the image in any lighting, however, slightly reduces image clarity and detail.
• Glazing with Glossy Glass – 2mm clear glass that provides complete image sharpness. Excellent for contrasting and vibrant images, but note that there are reflections in lighting.
• Art Glass Anti-Reflective Glass – highest-grade solution with 98% light transmission and anti-reflective coating. Ideally suited for artworks displayed in galleries or showcases. The only drawback – a higher price.

Glazing is only possible with framing, as the frame holds the glass in place. For the glass not to touch the image, we also recommend using matting, which provides a slight distance and visual depth.

5. Frame Selection. Framing – Custom Frames for Your Image

We offer professional image framing using high-quality aluminum frame profiles. In total, more than 100 different profiles are available – in various thicknesses, styles and color tones. At least 30 to 40 most popular variations are always available on-site.

Both budget-friendly and premium class aluminum frame profiles are available. All the frames are modular in structure – they can be reused.

For an ideal result, we recommend combining framing with matting and glazing. If you choose matting, the size of the frame and glass is calculated according to the outer dimensions of the matting.

6. Matting Selection – Elegance and Image Protection

Matting is a decorative cardboard frame placed between the photo and glass. Not only does it highlight the image visually but it also provides the necessary distance so that the glass does not touch the image surface. This is essential as direct contact can cause sticking, moisture accumulation and unwanted optical effects.

Our assortment includes more than 100 different matting types in various colors, textures and thicknesses. All matting is cut with beveled edge, which enhances the visual depth of the image. Experienced staff will help to individually adapt the matting to the specific artwork or photography.

When choosing matting, the size of the frame and the glass is determined by the outer dimensions of the matting. To ensure maximum protection and stability, we also recommend glazing the photo – glass helps to hold the matting in its place. Still, glazing is not mandatory.
