Edge Trimming
|
Edging can also be applied to a mounted board for both protection and decorative purposes. |
|
For Foamboard an in-expensive tough plastic edge strip can be applied, available in black. Foamboard hangers available as an option. |
|
Also available is an Aluminiuim Edge frame in brushed silver, complete with hanging brackets, this type of frame being mostly suited to more permanent wall mounted boards. |
Encapsualtion
|
Plastic Encapsulation is the method of hot heat sealing a paper original between two layers of clear film. |
|
We can encapsulate any original up to 40 inches wide by any length (which covers all paper sizes up to A0.) |
|
As standard we use a heavier constructed medium weight film for large format originals – it lays flatter and greatly reduces the risk of damage to even very lightweight papers. |
|
Encapsulated prints can be rolled for storage or easy transportation, we also offer two fixing options of, Self Adhesive Velcro tape or Window suckers. |
