Material Matters: Photo Paper and Styrene for Giant Prints
Our premium photo poster material is designed to capture and enhance every detail of your print giant posters, ensuring a professional and high-quality finish. We offer two distinct gloss finishes to amplify the visual appeal of your design:
-
Semi-gloss: This finish offers a balanced sheen that enhances color vibrancy without excessive reflection, making it an excellent choice for giant posters that incorporate a mix of images and text. Semi-gloss brightens every hue, ensuring your posters are both informative and visually engaging.
-
High gloss: For giant posters featuring high-resolution photographs or fine art, our high gloss finish delivers unparalleled vibrancy and detail. The colors become exceptionally rich and deep, intensifying the impact of the printed work and creating a truly stunning visual experience.
Alternatively, for increased durability and versatility, you can opt to have your giant format printing produced on 20 mil. styrene. This robust material provides several key advantages:
-
Long-lasting Indoor Durability: Styrene is exceptionally durable, making it ideal for long-term indoor displays that need to withstand regular handling and environmental factors.
-
Flexible for Handling and Shipping: Despite its durability, styrene remains flexible enough to be rolled for convenient storage or cost-effective shipping, offering practical advantages for distribution and logistics.
-
Waterproof for Temporary Outdoor Use: The waterproof nature of styrene allows for temporary outdoor display, making it suitable for short-term promotions or events where your giant posters might be exposed to the elements. This feature expands the application possibilities for your printed materials.
Designing Giant Posters for Maximum Impact
To ensure your giant format poster effectively achieves its purpose, a compelling and clear design is crucial. It needs to communicate your message instantly and memorably. Consider these essential design tips when creating your custom posters:
- Design for Distance: Remember that giant posters are primarily viewed from a distance. Carefully evaluate how your chosen colors appear from afar. Test if color combinations create the intended impression or if they might be misconstrued. Simplify your color palette by reducing the number of shades and prioritize complementary hues to ensure visual clarity and ease of viewing, even from a distance.
