Mounting and Finishing Services Sydney

Mounting and Finishing Services Sydney

Need your prints, posters, photos, artwork or display graphics finished professionally? Fast Print Services offers mounting and finishing services in Sydney for projects that need to look polished, stay flat, handle well and be ready for display.

We can help with foam core mounting, acrylic mounting, block mounting, lamination, UV coating, precision trimming, direct-to-board printing, and other finishing options, depending on your artwork, size, use, and deadline.

Whether you need a one-off presentation board, a retail display, exhibition graphics, office signage, mounted artwork or a larger display project, our team can recommend the right material and finish for the job.

Print Finishing and Mounting for Professional Displays

Mounting and finishing can make a big difference to how your printed work looks, feels and performs. A loose print may be suitable for short-term use, but mounted and finished graphics are easier to display, more durable and more professional in presentation.

Mounting gives the print rigidity and structure, while finishing can protect the surface, improve handling and create the right visual effect. Depending on your project, this may include lamination, UV coating, trimming, edge finishing or direct printing onto rigid board.

These services are commonly used for exhibitions, trade shows, retail displays, presentation boards, school projects, office graphics, photos, artwork, signage and point-of-sale displays.

At Fast Print Services, we offer mounting and finishing services to ensure that your graphics and artwork are presented in the best possible way. Our mounting and finishing services enable you to create stunning, professional, long-lasting displays. 

Display Graphics That Make a Lasting Impression

Need your prints to look sharp, professional, and built to last? Our mounting and finishing services ensure your posters, photos, and signage are presentation-ready—clean, crisp, and durable. Whether it's for retail, events, trade shows, or interior décor, we help your work stand out and stand up.

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 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.

Mounting Options

Foam core mounting is lightweight, cost-effective and useful for presentations, events, displays and short-term signage.

Acrylic mounting creates a clean, glossy, and modern look that suits photos, artwork, office displays, and premium presentation pieces.

Block mounting gives prints a rigid, frameless finish, often using MDF or another solid backing board.

Canvas stretching can turn printed canvas or artwork into a gallery-style display over a timber frame, where suitable.

Direct-to-board printing prints artwork straight onto rigid board, which can be a practical alternative to traditional mounting for many display jobs.

The best option depends on the size, display environment, required durability, budget and final look you want to achieve.

Our mounting and finishing services include:

  • Customised options to suit your specific needs
  • A variety of mounting options, including foam core, gatorboard, and acrylic 
  • Finishing options, including lamination and UV coating, to protect your graphics from wear and tear 
  • Precision cutting to ensure a perfect fit for any project
  • Fast turnaround times to meet your deadlines 
  • Competitive pricing for all our services 

Trust Fast Print Services to help you mount and finish your graphics and artwork with the utmost care and attention to detail. Contact us today to learn more!

What Do Our Clients Think?

Built to Fit Your Project

Whether it’s a one-off art piece or a bulk run of signage, we can customise mounting and finishing to your size, thickness, and material needs. We’re here to help you achieve the perfect balance of aesthetics and functionality.

Benefits of Mounting and Finishing

Mounting and finishing help your printed work look more professional and last longer. A mounted print stays flatter, handles better and is easier to display than a loose sheet.

The right finish can also protect your print from marks, scuffs, moisture, handling and general wear. This is especially useful for displays, presentations, signage, exhibition graphics and printed material that needs to be transported or reused.

Mounting can also improve presentation. Foam core, acrylic, MDF, gatorboard and direct-to-board options all create a different look and level of durability, allowing the finished piece to suit the environment where it will be displayed.

Finishing options such as lamination, UV coating, precision trimming and custom cutting can help the final piece feel more complete, more durable and more aligned with your brand or display requirements.

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 mounting and finishing, start with how the piece will be used. A short-term event board may only need lightweight foam core, while a retail display, office sign or exhibition panel may need a stronger and more durable material.

The display environment is important. Indoor displays have different requirements to outdoor or high-traffic areas. If the piece will be handled often, transported, exposed to sunlight or displayed near moisture, the material and finish should be chosen carefully.

Think about the surface finish as well. Gloss lamination can make colours look bright and polished, while matt lamination can reduce glare and create a softer, more refined appearance.

The fixing method should be considered before production. Some mounted pieces sit on easels, while others need holes, Velcro, hanging strips, standoffs or other installation methods.

Artwork quality also matters. Large mounted prints need high-resolution artwork, correct sizing, bleed where required and clean file setup so the finished piece looks sharp.
