Direct to Media UV Printing

Direct to Media UV printing is exactly that; we can print your image directly to a flat substrate of your choice, up to four inches thick and 8 x 10 ft as one full piece. Direct to media can be highly durable compared to traditional prints mounted to a substrate, with the added bonus of being water-resistant.

We always advise you to book a test print before printing full artwork as images present differently depending on the substrates.

Please contact us if you would like more information.

  • Print on any flat material.
  • Print up to 3 x 2.4m in one piece.
  • Order online or in person.
  • Over 40 year’s experience.
We can print on any flat material

Glass & Perspex

Printing directly to clear materials such as glass or Perspex, allows artwork to take on a transparent quality, and can even be used to create special effects.

Tiles

Our Direct to Media printer can also be used for innovative interior design pieces, from floor tiles to wall tiles – mosaics to any size can be created in our lab.

Copper

Working and testing with a variety of materials gives us an opportunity to come up with one-off beautiful pieces like this copper landscape print from Carl Bigmore’s series ‘Between Two Mysteries.’

Vinyl & Textiles

We’ve worked with interior designers to create truly unique, one-off pieces of art and decor. We’ll happily test ideas with you in our lab, so pop us an email or come and see us and we’ll talk through your ideas.

Wood

Printing directly to wood is a popular choice, by selecting the right imagery the wood grain naturally enhances the existing artwork.

Aluminium

Printing directly to Aluminium creates a whole new dimension to the traditional print and mount, images take on a metallic look and provide a modern alternative look.

Slate

As our printer can print to almost any flat surface, we encourage our clients to think outside the box – you can blend materials together to make a sculptural piece of artwork.

Brushed Dibond

This material has proven an ideal medium for architectural photography and portraits with muted tones, just pop into our front of house and see for yourself!

Art Signage

As well as creating artworks, our Direct to Media printer can also create signs for any location – whether it be part of an exhibition or for outside use.
