About our posters

Posters are the quickest way to fill a wall or window with a message. Whether it is a weekend sale, a gig, a school production, a new menu item or a safety reminder for the lunchroom, a well-printed poster gets noticed without the cost of a permanent sign. We print from A3 up to A0 and in custom sizes.

For most indoor posters a satin or gloss paper is ideal. It gives bright colour and sharp text at a sensible price, and it is easy to pin, tape or frame. If the poster will be handled, hung in a window with condensation, or reused across several events, choose synthetic stock. It looks like paper but is waterproof and very hard to tear. A matt laminate can be added to cut reflections under bright shop lighting.

Think about how the poster will be displayed before you order. Snap frames and poster pockets take standard A sizes, so sticking to A1, A2 or A3 keeps things simple. Window posters facing the street benefit from large, high-contrast lettering that can be read through glass. Posters for A-frame inserts or lightboxes need different materials, so let us know if that is the plan.

Artwork quality matters more as posters get bigger. A photo that looks fine on a phone can turn soft at A1. As a guide, set up your file at the finished size, keep images at a good resolution and export as a print-ready PDF. If you are not sure, upload what you have and we will check it and tell you honestly how it will print.

Posters are priced by size, stock and quantity. Short runs are welcome, and larger runs bring the unit price down.

Posters FAQs

What poster size should I choose?

A3 suits noticeboards and counters. A2 and A1 are the usual sizes for shop windows and frames. A0 is for large walls and displays seen from a distance.

What resolution should my artwork be?

Set up the file at final size with good quality images. We check every file and will let you know before printing if anything looks soft.

Can posters be used outdoors?

Paper posters are for indoor use. For outdoor display choose synthetic stock, or consider a corflute sign or vinyl banner.

Can I print just one poster?

Our minimum order is [MINIMUM ORDER]. Small quantities are no problem and are common for events and displays.

Are posters supplied rolled or flat?

Larger posters are normally rolled to protect them. Smaller sizes may be packed flat. Let us know if you have a preference.
