The artwork is printed directly onto 1/8″ or 1/4″ acrylic plexiglass to make the images instantly more dynamic as the rich colors interact beautifully with light. This printing process does not require photo paper or additional mounting materials, We print our artwork directly to the acrylic surface. Known for optimum ink adhesion, ‘Direct to Acrylic’ prints deliver high-resolution images with unmatched detail and durability as a long-lasting print solution.
