Select the product material you would like to hang up on your walls
The product dropdown menu ofers you the possibility to pick your prefered size and material. You can choose your your favorite size and material among the following options:
- Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating on top): A glossy acrylic glass print, which is sometimes labelled as a plexiglass print, changes the artwork into décor. The major benefit of an acrylic glass fine art copy is that contrasts and artwork details become more identifiable due to the very subtle tonal gradation of the picture.
- Poster (canvas material): A poster is a printed flat cotton canvas paper with a slight surface texture. Please note, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin between 2-6 cm round about the work of art, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
- The canvas print: A canvas print, which should not be confused with a painting on a canvas, is a digital copy printed onto canvas material. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is quite simple to hang up your Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suitable for any type of wall.

A direct Direct Print on Aluminum Dibond is your excellent start to art reproductions made with alu. For your Aluminium Dibond option, we print the chosen artpiece on the aluminium surface.
