More information on Gatorboard

 

  • White in color, this 3/16 inch material is composed of a dense and solid synthetic foam, compressed between two thin wood surfaces, which makes it a matte, rigid, resistant and very light support.
  • Gatorboard is made from wood fiber and not cardboard, so enlargements on Gatorboard are very firm and do not bend unlike foamboard.
  • UV ink is applied using a high-quality flatbed inkjet printer. In addition, printing on gatorboard is resistant to scratches and sunlight.
  • A large format on photo paper would require lamination to avoid warping, while printing on gatorboard will allow you to avoid this step.

FREE COLOR CHECKS!

 

All images, with or without corrections, will be checked by our technicians so that the final result is the best possible depending on the chosen material.

PREPARATION OF YOUR FILE

 

We print mainly from a jpg at a resolution between 100 and 300 DPI.

Some will tell us: “TIFF is much better because it is not compressed and therefore it keeps all its quality”. In theory it is true, in practice it is not seen when printing! If you remain skeptical, you can always work your images in RAW, TIFF and save the final in jpg!
