LARGE FORMAT
Large format printing uses durable, versatile materials to create impactful signage, displays, and promotions. Common options include flexible materials like vinyl, fabric, and canvas, as well as rigid substrates such as PVC board, foam board, and wood. Material choice depends on the project's purpose, look, and environment.
Graphic Imaging can guide you to chose the right material and finish to ensure visual impact and durability for your unique project.
Flexible Materials
Vinyl:
Transparent, translucent or opaque, durable and weather-resistant; ideal for wall and window graphics, floor graphics, banners, posters, and vehicle wraps.
Fabric:
Great for soft, colorful wall displays, backdrops, trade show displays and banners.
Canvas:
Textured, high-quality option for murals and artistic prints.
Rigid Materials
PVC Board:
Strong and weather-resistant, for indoor/outdoor use.
Foam Board:
Budget-friendly for indoor displays, but less sturdy.
Gatorboard:
Reinforced for longer-lasting signs.
​
Styrene:
Lightweight, ideal for short-term signage.
​
Backlit Film:
Generally semi-rigid allowing it to be curved or slightly bent. It maintains its shape when placed in a frame or lightbox.
Custom vinyl graphics can be installed to any surface that can hold a tack.
Large Format graphics can be installed on unique surfaces or specialty locations.
