These brilliant photographic Digital C prints, are extremely sharp and accurate. Whether rendered onto photographic paper, ***** metallic paper or transparency films (Duraclear),**** ++++translucent prints (Duratrans) ++++the incredibly rich results have made them into the professional graphics industry standard for large-format visual displays.

Film Options:
We offer both translucent and transparent films (duratrans and duraclear).
Both Duratrans and Duraclear are designed to be viewed via backlighting, however there is a major difference in the opacity of the film; Duratrans features a milky translucent backing and Duraclear, is indeed clear.
Duratrans: is designed for use with a very bright and exposed rear light source coming (e,g, a lightbox), where the milky backing serves to obscure everything but the desired image area.
Duraclear: is perfect for display applications such as window graphics, where the transparent visual is meant to be viewed from both sides of the glass (e.g. in-store display). Pleae remember that this trick doesn’t work well with text, as it will appear to be backwards from the rear view.
