Big Images (Posters & Banners)| | | High definition printers, with the very latest piezo-electric inkjet technology, it is possible to produce big Images of exceptionally high definition at 720dpi, up to 1524mm (60 inches) wide.
Posters for use away from sunlight
These big Image posters are printed using Dye based Inks. Dye based inks produce extremely vibrant colours and are very economically priced. It should be noted that Dye ink posters will fade if exposed to sunlight for prolonged periods. Used internally their life is virtually unlimited.
Sunlight stable posters
External use Big Image posters are printed using Solvent based Inks. Solvent inks are guaranteed stable against UV light exposure for up to three years. In practice the durability may be expected to be in excess of this. Solvent based inks are completely waterproof and can be printed directly on to a number of non-porous stocks.

Finishing
Lamination using 43 micron plastic film on the face side is recommended on 170 gm Photorealistic Matt paper. Encapsulation is similar to lamination except that the plastic is applied to both sides of the poster and extends beyond the poster edges. This makes the poster effectively waterproof and extremely durable. Encapsulation is available in three grades: 43 micron, 125 micron and 250 micron per side. Mounting the posters on to 10mm Centafoam board makes a rigid display which looks particularly appealing and ideal for use at exhibitions and presentations.
Roping and Eyeletting banner vinyl allows banners to be hung outside.
