Print Mounting and Finishing Services Sydney

Protect, strengthen and present printed graphics with suitable boards, laminates, coatings and precision finishing.

Professional Mounting and Print Finishing for Displays

Fast Print Services provides mounting and print finishing in Sydney for display graphics, presentation boards, artwork, signage and other printed pieces that need a clean, durable and professional result.

Depending on the project, we can help with lamination, UV coating, precision trimming, custom cutting, edge finishing, selected mounting options and direct-to-board printing. The right process depends on the size, material, intended use, display environment, handling requirements and deadline.

Skip the mounting—print direct and save time.

Fast Print Services now prints directly onto rigid boards with our state-of-the-art latex flatbed printer. You’ll get the polished, block-mounted look you love—minus the lamination step, adhesive costs and risk of edge-peel.

If your project is specifically a mounted poster or board-mounted poster display, visit our Poster Mounting Sydney page. If you need artwork printed directly onto foam board, PVC, acrylic or another rigid material, ask about our flatbed printing services.

If you are unsure which material or finish is best, send us your artwork, size and use case, and we can recommend the most practical option.

Choosing Between Mounting, Finishing and Direct Printing

Mounting, finishing and direct-to-board printing can produce similar-looking display pieces, but they use different production methods.

• Mounting: A printed sheet is applied to a rigid backing material. This can be useful when you already have a print, require a particular printed stock or need a specific mounted finish.
• Print finishing: Lamination, coating, trimming, cutting and edge finishing can protect the print, improve handling and prepare it for presentation or display.
• Direct-to-board printing: Artwork is printed directly onto a rigid sheet. This removes the separate adhesive-mounting stage and may reduce the risk of bubbling, lifting or edge peel.
• Combined production: Some projects require printing, mounting, lamination, trimming and display fittings as part of one finished job.

The best method depends on the artwork, size, material, quantity, expected lifespan, display environment and budget. Send us your specifications and we will recommend a practical production option.

Mounting and Print Finishing Options

The right finishing process depends on how the printed piece will be displayed, handled, transported and reused.

• Selected print mounting: Printed graphics can be applied to suitable rigid backing materials when traditional mounting is appropriate.
• Lamination: Matt, gloss or other suitable laminates can protect printed surfaces, improve handling and change the finished appearance.
• UV coating: A suitable coating can add surface protection or alter the visual finish, depending on the printed material and production method.
• Precision trimming: Prints and boards can be trimmed accurately to their finished dimensions for clean presentation and consistent sizing.
• Custom cutting: Selected boards and display materials can be cut to custom sizes or shapes where the material and artwork are suitable.
• Edge finishing: Clean edges help mounted graphics, display boards and presentation pieces look complete and professionally produced.
• Display preparation: Holes, Velcro, hanging strips, easel backing or other fittings may be added depending on how the finished piece will be used.
• Direct-to-board alternatives: Printing directly onto a rigid sheet may be more practical than adhesive mounting for some display and signage projects.

• Display or fixing method: Tell us if the piece requires holes, Velcro, hanging strips, easel backing, standoffs or another fitting.

Types of Mounting Services

We offer a comprehensive range of mounting and finishing services to cater to different needs:

• Foam Core Mounting: Lightweight and sturdy, foam core mounting is perfect for presentations, displays, and signage.
• Canvas Stretching: Transform your prints into stunning canvas artworks, stretched over a wooden frame for a gallery-quality look.
• Lamination: Protect your prints with a clear, durable laminate that enhances colour and provides resistance to moisture and wear.
• Acrylic Mounting: Achieve a modern, sleek look with acrylic mounting, which provides a high-gloss finish and excellent protection.
• Matting and Framing: Enhance the elegance of your prints with custom matting and framing options, perfect for art prints, photos, and certificates.
• Block Mounting: A durable and cost-effective option, block mounting involves adhering prints to a wooden or MDF board, giving a clean, frameless look.
• Dry Mounting: A permanent mounting solution that adheres prints to a backing board, preventing wrinkles and bubbles.

What to Consider Before Ordering Mounting and Finishing

Before ordering, consider how the finished piece will be used, displayed, handled and transported.

• Display period: A short-term event board may only require a lightweight solution, while a retail, office or exhibition display may need a stronger material and more durable finish.
• Indoor or outdoor use: Exposure to sunlight, moisture, weather or high-traffic conditions affects the choice of material, print process and surface protection.
• Surface finish: Gloss lamination can create a bright polished appearance, while matt lamination can reduce glare and provide a softer finish.
• Mounting or direct printing: Traditional mounting may suit an existing print or a particular printed stock. Direct-to-board printing may be more practical for selected rigid-display projects.
• Fixing method: Confirm whether the piece will sit on an easel, attach with Velcro, hang from a wall or require holes, standoffs or other fittings.
• Transport and handling: Large, rigid, acrylic or fragile pieces may need extra protection, packing and delivery planning.
• Artwork quality: Supply artwork at the correct size with suitable bleed and a print-ready PDF at 300 DPI where image resolution is relevant.
• Deadline: Allow time for printing, finishing, curing, quality checks, packing and delivery where required.

Send us the size, intended use and deadline if you are unsure which option is best.

Mounting and Finishing Turnaround Times

Turnaround depends on the printing method, mounting material, finishing process, quantity, artwork status and production schedule.

• Standard finishing: Straightforward trimming, lamination or mounting on standard materials may be completed more quickly than projects involving specialty boards or several finishing processes.
• Complex projects: Acrylic, custom cutting, multiple finishes, unusual materials or large quantities may require additional production and testing time.
• Urgent work: Same-day or next-day production may be available for selected jobs when materials, approved artwork and production capacity permit.
• Artwork approval: Production timing begins after the specifications, artwork and required finish have been confirmed.
• Delivery: Allow additional time for packing and transport, particularly for large, rigid, acrylic or fragile pieces.

If your project has a fixed event, presentation or installation date, contact us before placing the order so we can confirm a realistic production schedule.
