PLAQUE MOUNTING & LAMINATING
Easy & Ready to Hang! No Frame Required!
Manufacturing Process
The plaque mounting process begins by laminating an antireflective UV protective film on the image and a sheet of mounting tissue on the back. This assembly is permanently bonded to a precut fiberboard using heat and pressure. The sides are sanded, beveled and finished with a thermally applied foil that is available in several different colors. A groove is cut on the back of the fiberboard for hanging purposes.
UNIQUENESS OF THE PRODUCT
- Ultra violet protection of the image – reduction of color fading over time.
- The antireflection film does not induce glare the way glass does.
- It is not sensitive to temperature or humidity.
- Safer for kids, the hospitality industry, schools – no glass to break.
- Less expensive than custom framing.
- Ideal process for images printed on thin paper or to restore damaged prints.
- It is also perfect for newspaper articles since they yellow very quickly with light and oxygen. The laminated film protects and preserves the image from the oxygen and the UV filter blocks the damaging light.
- It can be individually wrapped and shipped with confidence by standard courier (UPS, USPS, FedEx,..). Framed images with glass are harder to ship successfully. They often require special and expensive packaging to prevent damaged shipments.
