Materials you can choose

We offer a range of various materials and sizes for every product. The following sizes and materials are the options we offer you for individualization:

• Aluminium dibond (metal print): Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with a true effect of depth. The Direct Print on Aluminum Dibond is your perfect introduction to fine art reproductions produced with aluminum.
• The canvas print: The canvas direct print is a printed cotton canvas stretched on a wooden frame. It generates a particular look of three-dimensionality. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which means that it is easy and straightforward to hang up the Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. Therefore, a canvas print is suitable for all kinds of walls.
• Poster print (canvas material): The Artprinta poster is a UV printed sheet of cotton canvas paper with a fine finish on the surface, which reminds the actual work of art. The poster print is optimally designed for framing your fine art print with a custom frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of approximately 2-6cm round about the painting, which facilitates the framing with a custom frame.
• Print on acrylic glass: A glossy print on acrylic glass, which is sometimes described as a print on plexiglass, will change the original work of art into beautiful décor and offers a viable alternative option to canvas and aluminidum dibond art prints. The major benefit of an acrylic glass print is that contrasts and color details will be exposed due to the granular gradation.
