Featured Product Acrylic Prints

This months featured product is our acrylic prints. Possibly one of the most popular products at The ImageBox our stunning acrylic prints will be the centrepiece of any room. Our acrylic prints have a contemporary finish for displying your photos and images and work brilliantly with all types of photographs.

How are they produced?

The acrylic prints are produced from laser cut acrylic which are produced using the latest laser technology. Once the acrylic has been cut it is then polished with a diamond polisher to give the edges perfect clarity. This allows light to enter the side of the acrylic giving your image amazing vibrancy as the light reactes with the acrylic. One the acrylic has been prepared the printed image is then pressure mounted onto the acrylic with an optically clear adhesive. This takes a great amount of time and skill. The chrome fixings are then attached to the image so that it can be hung.
Which Images work best?

In our opinion acrylic prints work with all types of images but they look great with very vibrant bright colours. The acrylic reacts with the colours on the image to create a vibrant piece of stunning artwork.

Acrylic Framed Prints

Acrylic frames are a modern way of displaying posters, photos or artwork. They are incredibly popular because they do not distract the eye away from the image in fact they enhance the image which sits within the frame.Acrylic photo frames are now available as ready made kits or available from a select few websites offering a print and frame solution.

So what are the components that make an acrylic framed print or sometimes referred to as a acrylic sandwich frame. Acrylic sandwich frames are made up of two acrylic panels usually 5mm to keep the cost down and are then held together with sign supports usually referred to as standoffs. The standoffs are attached to the wall to hold the sandwich of panels together which traps the images within the centre. This allows the image to be easily changed as the image is not permanently fixed to the acrylic panels.

Acrylic panel frames can usually be made into any size although the most poplular sizes are standard photographic sizes such as 8x10 inch, 12 x16 inch and 18 x24 inch. The back panel on the frames is usually a coloured panel most popular is black or white but other coloured perspex is sometimes available upon request. The image usually sits within the centre of the panels therefore the back panel is visible creating a border around the image.

If you are looking for a modern stylish frame then acrylic frames are for you. They are stylish and enhance any image that sits within an acrylic panel frame. For competitive prices and high quality acrylic framed print take a look at theimagebox.co.uk.

Acrylic Prints

Acrylic prints are becoming the most unique contemporary method of framing images and are incredibly popular with restaurants hotels and business offices. The very nature of the product, cool fixings, modern acrylic panels makes them the ideal choice for anybody looking for the ultra modern interior.

Acrylic panels are incredibly durable and will not shatter like glass, this makes them ideal for public spaces. The metal standoffs that hold the acrylic panels together are usually held to wall by a screw directly into the wall therefor they are permanently fixed which makes them safe for public areas. Another advantage of acrylic photo frames is that they can be easily cleaned and wiped over.
Clean lines cool fixings and modern fixings make acrylic prints the ideal choice for anybody looking to make a real statement with a piece of artwork or image. The very nature of acrylic allows maximum light to the image which enhances the picture. With an acrylic photo frame the image is the part that stands out more than any part of the frame, the acrylic frame does not distract you from the centerpiece which is the image or artwork. With a traditional picture frame the frame can be very much as visually stunning as the picture it is displaying.

Acrylic Frame News


Acrylic blocks are the latest spectacular for displaying images and photos. Acrylic desktop blocks are the latest in the ever increasing popularity of acrylic products for the home and office.
Acrylic blocks differ from the usual style of acrylic frames. The original style of acrylic photo frames is traditionally held in place by metal standoffs where as acrylic blocks have been designed without any metal fixings and are specifically for sitting on a desktop or shelf.

Acrylic blocks are super transparent and are usually 20mm thick and are diamond edge polished. The clarity of the acrylic block gives the image mounted to it a three dimensional look. The image is facemounted onto the back of the acrylic block with a jetmounter laminator. This style of mounting is called cold mounting lamination. The image is printed onto high quality 280 gsm photographic paper and then fixed to the acrylic with with an incredibly thin transparent sheet. The laminator sheet and image is pressed through the jet-mounter laminator to give it a permanent fix. Once the laminating is complete the image will last a lifetime. Acrylic sheets unlike glass are shatterproof and the image will be fade resistant for over 75 years.

Acrylic blocks are the perfect gift for any occasion including weddings, Anniversaries, Christenings and Birthdays. For large orders the blocks can often be engraved with a personal message. If you are looking to order a high quality personal gift then acrylic blocks are the perfect product.
