Description

Acrylic art is a growing phenomenon and ours are great quality. There are different ways to create it. Our method involves mounting photo quality prints on museum grade cotton rag to the face of 5mm Perspex with a clear adhesive and then adding another layer of 5mm Perspex on top. This combination with Perspex branded and guaranteed acrylic makes for one of the most archival printed acrylic products on the market, a particular benefit for photographic professionals and artists. The finished result is stunning and unlike anything else. The light plays interestingly on the two separate layers of Perspex to add extra dimensions to the overall effect.

Acrylic art is perhaps even more modern, minimal and uber cool than the canvas print, if that is possible. Its robust nature makes it perfect for bars, hotel rooms, corporate and public places. It also looks fantastic in the home.

Some other makers print directly onto acrylic, which while suiting some modern art designs, is usually not photographic print quality, and the inks crack and chip. White cannot always be printed meaning many photos will look unnatural (unless against a brilliant white wall). Where white is printed this can mean that screen printing is being used – an older print method known for its lower quality.
