STUDENT DISPLAY MOUNTING

When choosing how to mount a photograph a few things need to be considered such as how long will it be displayed or how will it be attached to the wall.

KAPA™ Mount (Foamboard)

Ultra lightweight and smooth, this material can be used when the print is to be framed or hung directly to the wall. The material is 5mm in thickness and has a grey centre core with an Aluminium foil liner.

Display Card

Display card is lightweight and very cost effective. It is normally used when prints are to be framed as it is thin and lightweight. All card has a slight texture making it unsuitable for gloss prints.

PVC

Foam PVC available in either black or white. This material is tougher than either card or foamboard and can be framed or hung directly to a wall with Velcro or suitable adhesives.

MDF

Block mounting to MDF can create simple and effective displays. The edges are painted either black or white and are most commonly hung with 9mm battens making it appear to float from the wall.
