New print types

In addition to our existing Lustre and Metallic paper types, we’ve added some new paper types and sizes for you to sell directly to your customers with Direct Fulfilment. Please note that the Print options are not framed or mounted and will be shipped as is. Each print is guaranteed to last a lifetime. Fine Art Prints The image will be printed onto 100% – 210 gsm Cotton Rag Archival art paper which will give your image an old world warmth and a classic museum quality feel. A thicker more substantial and slightly textured paper combined with matte pigmented dyes is reminiscent of a watercolour painting. Canvas Prints The image will be printed onto a high quality, archival, deluxe grade canvas (cotton/polyester mix) which provides a more uniform printing surface with less imperfections. The final product will be dispatched “as is” without stretching of any kind, allowing you the flexibility to have the canvas mounted by your own local supplier. New panoramic sizesAt your request we’ve also added a slew of new panoramic sizes for prints and some of the new mounted and framed products. Ratio’s include 2:1, 3:1, 4:1 and 5:1.
