Poster Printing
We have recently invested in our poster printing service, resulting in higher quality and quicker turnarounds.
We can print large A2, A1, and A0 posters on a variety of paper types. Our machines are always colour calibrated for perfect results and we only use fade-resistant UV inks.
- Simple prices
- Same day service
- No extra charge for different designs
Our poster printing and cutting is fully automated, so the majority of orders are printed and dispatched the same day that we receive them.
For added protection and a professional finish, we can laminate your posters with either a matt or gloss encapsulation.
We also don't charge extra for printing more than one design. If you'd like 10 different posters, just select 10 posters!
For more information, please see our blog post on how to design a poster to print.
All prices are plus £8 delivery +VAT or you can collect from our shop.

How it works
Simply work out the number of posters you would like, add any extra options, and Add to Basket.
If you have 4 different designs, you can select 4 posters and we'll print one of each.
During checkout you'll be prompted to upload your file(s), and there'll be a box where you can write any special instructions or notes for your order.
We don't print anything automatically. We'll check your order and email you a PDF proof if necessary. This will show the final layout as it would print, and allows you to check for any mistakes.
If your file looks fine we'll get started right away, and email you once we've dispatched your order.
For large quantities or custom sizes, please email us for a quote.
File Types
- For best results please save your file as a PDF. For images, a TIFF or maximum quality JPEG is good.
- If you are unsure about the quality of your file, zoom in on screen to 400% to get a preview of how it will print out as a poster. Posters are meant to be viewed at a distance, so some blockiness is usually OK.
- We accept most file types (eg: Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, Publisher), and we can resize your file for you.
Poster Specifications
- Matt coated card is our most popular choice, and it suitable for most posters. It has a non-reflective matt finish, and is suitable for indoor use only. It's not suitable for writing on.
- Photo satin is shinier than matt, as is best for photo prints or particularly black designs. It really enhances any sharp, vivid colours, and is suitable for indoor use only.
- Tearproof plastic paper has a matt finish and is water, tear and fade resistant, so can be used indoors or outdoors. It's still thin like paper but a lot more durable and 100% recyclable. We recommend this for window displays, longer term use, and as a cheaper alternative to lamination.
- Encapsulation (double sided lamination) protects your posters with a plastic finish, making your posters durable and reusable and wipe clean. It can be used indoors or outdoors. Gloss lamination is shiny and enhances colours. Matt lamination is non reflective and can dull colours for a more subtle finish.
Poster Sizes
- A0: 1189 x 841 mm / 33.1 x 46.8 inch
- A1: 841 x 594 mm / 23.4 x 33.1 inch
- A2: 594 x 420 mm / 16.5 x 23.4 inch
- A3 and A4 posters are printed using a different machine and are much cheaper. We can also print custom sizes, please email us for a quote.
Turnaround time
- 1-2 working days from approval of PDF proof (though most of our orders are dispatched same day).
