Supreme Pictures provides both standard glass and premium acrylic glazing options for your framed photo prints. The choice depends on your specific needs regarding protection, weight, and the environment where the photo will be displayed.
Standard Glass Glazing
Standard glass is a traditional choice known for its excellent optical clarity and scratch-resistant surface. It is often recommended for:
- Budget-conscious projects where traditional clarity is the priority.
- Low-traffic areas where the frame will not be frequently handled.
- Smaller pieces, as glass can become quite heavy for large-format frames.
Acrylic Glazing
Acrylic is a superior solution for safety and long-term preservation. Its benefits include:
- UV Protection: It filters up to 99% of harmful UV rays to prevent fading.
- Safety: It is shatter-resistant and lightweight, making it safer for homes with children or pets.
- Versatility: Ideal for large-format pieces, high-traffic areas, and corporate spaces.
To help you decide, the company offers a digital proofing process via their online store. This allows you to select your preferred glazing and preview how the finished framed print will look before production begins.
